Tasting Notes:
“ With a darker hue and a deeper more black-fruited style than the AOC Bordeaux Plaisance, this is another very carefully made wine with pinpoint accurate fruit and just the right amount of grip and acidity on the finish. More serious and a few shades darker than the AOC Bordeaux and also with a more involving flavour, too, this is a wonderful wine. ”
