Tasting notes

After two powerful, sunny vintages, the estate describes 2011 for well-ripened fruit, fine plump tannins, and a good freshness that keeps classic balance.

This is an older vintage. It was sourced from a reliable, proven source, checked for authenticity by our in-house sommelier, and stored in our constant-temperature cellar after arrival.
