Drinking Window: 2020 - 2026
This stands out for its ripe autumnal fruits and soft approachable tannins. This is easy to drink and a good example of a Blaye red in an excellent vintage across the Right Bank. Oak is a little dominant, with traces of cedar and vanilla bean. In organic conversion with certification expected in 2021.
