Power and balance could sum up this confidential cuvée by its rarity but prized by connoisseurs. A festival of fruity notes (peach, citrus, pear and vanilla) is offered to us in a wine that is concentrated but retains all its freshness. To be enjoyed now for its spectacular nature and in the next ten years with a lobster thermidor. Guide vert RVF: 17.5/20; 97/100 Jeb Dunnuck; 95/100 Wine Spectator; 95/100 Wine Advocate; 94/100 Decanter.
