Press 2018:  93 Points, Wine Enthusiast & 90 Points, James Suckling - "Rich, savory and rather spicy with a generous, supple body, this is a typical Rasteau that’s now at its peak. Nice, long and supple finish with just a hint of prune." - JS

 

Vinification Total de-stemming, Vatting time : 17 to 21 days, Matured in vats and "foudres"
