1er Grand Cru Classé since 1959
- The wine's backbone rests upon the richness and structure of Merlot, which lends considerable depth and a velvety texture to the palate. This is a wine of substance and presence.
- Cabernet Franc contributes brightness and a subtle spiced character, adding complexity and freshness that prevents the wine from becoming heavy. The interplay between the two varieties is carefully balanced.
- This vintage demonstrates genuine cellaring potential. The wine's architecture—firm tannins, good acidity, and concentrated fruit—suggests it will develop further complexity over the coming years, rewarding patience.

Breeding
50% new oak
On the eye
Deep garnet, with good colour intensity.
On the nose
The bouquet is intense and layered, revealing ripe red fruits—cherry and plum—alongside subtle spiced notes and a whisper of oak. The aromatics evolve as the wine opens.
In the mouth
Aromatic and well-structured, with silky tannins that coat the mouth pleasantly. The wine shows good balance between fruit expression and tannin presence, with a persistent finish.
This wine pairs beautifully with game birds and rich preparations. Consider it alongside a braised partridge with lentils, where the wine's structure and spiced notes will complement the earthiness of the dish. The wine's freshness will cut through the richness of the sauce.
