"Bordeaux blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (40%), Merlot (46%), Cabernet Franc (8%) and Petit Verdot (6%)
all grown on fine and deep gravels (silica-gravels from the quaternary era) Terroir of Macau. Grapes are hand harvested in small crates, inlcuding sorting in the vineyard. No foulage or no added yeast. Fermentation in concrete tanks. Aging in a reductive environment for 12 months in 300 and 400 litres French oak barrels. Barrel makers: Taransaud, Ermitage and Berthomieu. Light filtration if needed, low sulfur. Gorgeous wine, with a nice structure, ripe blackfruits and more spice on the palate, balanced tannins and plenty of genoristy thanks to the 2019 vintage considered by some one of Bordeaux best. I couldn't agree more, this is a delicious wine and it offers great value for money for those like me who love their Bordeaux, santé !"
