It is always a pleasure to open a bottle vinified by Patrick Carteyron, because you know that the pleasure will be there. As with this Grande Sélection, a 100% Merlot wine, hedonistic, but without excess or vulgarity: a very nice fruity and fresh nose, which precedes a palate with soft, crisp tannins, highlighted by a quality breeding. A reference, year after year.

Very deep gravel soils.

Total de-stemming of the harvest. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Vatting time of about 28 days. Aged for about 12 months in barrels, one third of which are renewed each year. Production: 55,000 bottles
