Grape : 100 % Cabernet-Franc 

This wine offers an intense ruby-red robe, dense and concentrated. The nose reveals subtle minty nuances, red berry liqueur, and forest strawberries. The attack is straightforward and strong in the mouth, with a sensuality that immediately suggests the full potential of a great terroir. A somewhat complex wine, both powerful and subtle, revealing great mineral purity in the finish.
