The wine

On the bottom of the slopes, on chalky ground, the vineyards produce wine that requires a long cellaring before it reaches maturity. Dark red in colour, with a lovely spicy bouquet, this wine develops a rich aroma. Red fruits, black berries, flowers, honey, toasted almonds develop into unique notes of leather, spices and undergrowth.
