A wine with plenty of concentration thanks to yields of around 15hl/ha, this displays fresh hedgerow fruit scents with some intense violet, chocolate and damp earth notes. The palate features a stony, mineral background and demonstrates great balance - an elegant canvas for the fruit. Terroir in action.
