Description

Rooted in a terroir of pebbles atop clay subsoil, this wine encapsulates its region's essence, benefiting from the pebbles' ability to retain heat by day and release it by night, ensuring optimal grape ripeness, while the clay subsoil provides consistent moisture to the vines, preventing hydric stress. Crafted exclusively from Merlot grapes and produced in limited quantities of 20,000 bottles, it undergoes meticulous winemaking guided by grape taste, followed by 12 months of traditional aging in French oak barrels, with an additional 6 months on lees. Upon tasting, it unveils an intense garnet hue, revealing a complex bouquet of soft vanilla oak and jammy undertones on the nose, while the palate delights in its crunchy finesse, harmonious richness, and seductive power, culminating in an elegant and enduring finish.
