Commentaire de dégustation
A deep red colour. The nose is powerful and expressive, revealing aromas of red fruit enhanced by a subtle hint of spice. The palate is beautifully harmonious, combining the deliciousness of ripe fruit with delicately structured tannins for a fine finish.
Météo
The 2024 vintage promises to be a landmark year, combining finesse, balance and aromatic sparkle. After a relatively mild winter,
spring conditions were generally favourable, with uniform, early flowering, heralding a promising potential for quality. The summer
was characterised by a fine climatic dynamic. Although the first part was punctuated by a few storms, these ensured precious water
reserves, supporting the vine’s development. Then, a hot, dry August helped the grapes to ripen gradually and evenly, ensuring
optimum concentration of aromas and tannins. The alternation of sunny days and cool nights in August and September played a key
role in the balance of the vintage, preserving a fine acidity and providing remarkable depth of flavour. The harvest, which ran from
23rd September to 7th October, was optimal, allowing us to pick grapes that were perfectly ripe, combining freshness with intense
aromatic expression. Thanks to meticulous selection and expert work in the vineyard, the 2024 vintage is shaping up to be a dazzling
year, in which each grape variety expresses its full potential.
