Well-known proprietor Thierry Valette has produced this wine, a blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc, from a biodynamically farmed vineyard. A sleeper of the vintage, this wine has dense ruby/purple color, sweet black cherry and blackcurrant fruit, chalky minerality, medium body, excellent concentration, depth and length. The purity, overall equilibrium and sweet tannin suggest a wine that could be drunk young or cellared for up to a decade.
