Growing Conditions
A winter of inadequate rainfall was followed by a wet and cold spring which reduced yield due to poor flowering conditions. The cool start to summer further delayed ripening, the benign warm weather of autumn allowed for even ripeness across all varieties. The resultant red wines are subtle in fruit flavour and fine in structure.
Nose
Sautéed wild sweet cherry and raspberry fruit aromas with freshly baked fruit muffin and underlying earth, star anise and truffle notes.
Palate
Subtle sweet and sappy ripe red fruits, with mushroom and spice. The fine fruit tannins of the mid palate provide a silky texture while a distinct and soft mineral acidity finishes the wine.
Food Pairing
Duck confit with puy lentils, creamy bleu St.Augur.
