There can be no doubt that this wine is the product of the splendid Graves terroir. Its colour is a beautiful deep red and its bouquet evocative of red berry fruit followed by dark chocolate, then mild spices. Rounded and mellow, delicately balanced between velvety flavours and fruit, the palate is chewy with a pleasingly aromatic finish and fine length. A mouth filling wine with fine, elegant tannins and typical Graves flavours (hazelnut and flint), ready for drinking right away and an opportunity for interesting matches with delicate dishes.
