A wine of much substance that confirms its style in which two Bordelaise varieties are combined with a deeply Mediterranean base. If it were intense and lively before, it has now polished these qualities with an extraordinary, almost extreme fruity vigor. The noble, immense grape offers sweet, meaty sensations of enormous singularity. It has a well-developed rustic personality, determined by the predominant cabernet franc variety that is smoothed over by the merlot. A welcoming warmth even though it is sweet and quick in the mouth, complexity and a lively spirit stand out. The 12 month aging in Allier oak is so nuanced and precise that it contributes to the exaltation of the basic material and its characteristic merits. Bottled in the summer of 2002. 36,854 bottles.
