High toned blackcurrant fruit on the nose, dark with soft floral reflections. This is so lovely, juicy and alive with balanced acidity that is deliciously mouthwatering. Supple tannins give a soft padding to the chewy blackcurrant fruit and support the overall frame with edges of liquorice. Nicely finessed but also complex and persistent. Enjoyable with confident winemaking on show.

Blackcurrants, blueberries, blackberries, undergrowth and baking spices on the nose. Medium body with creamy tannins. Round and silky with fruity and juicy character. Crunchy finish. Cabernet sauvignon, merlot and petit verdot.

Built on the site of an ancient priory, this chateau has produced a smooth, juicy wine. Ripe tannins are fully integrated with rich black fruits and lightened by acidity.
