Overview

From old vines, between 55 and 65 years old, in pink granite soil around the domaine on a southeast-facing slope. Elevage in barrels of 300 liters and larger fudres. Juicy red fruit is the first impression. Crunchy, pure, and bright. Cranberry fruit, with nice crispness and vibrancy. A lively Fleurie. 2024–27. 84
