Color : A beautiful intense ruby hue.

Nose : A beautiful definition of fruit with a freshness of graphite and pencil lead that marks the terroir dimension. The fruit is ripe but is tamed by the soil. This noble restraint leads us to a more refined wine, less showy in terms of fruit, but much deeper.

Palate : The aging is delicate. On the palate, the wine has great scope; it is vibrant and built on an elongated structure, with fine tannins and beautiful mineral bitterness. It is a more slender than thick juice, where the terroir's character, defined by the blue stones, is evident.

Service temperature : 59°F
