Notes presse & récompenses
This Malbec makes it clear from the outset that it feels very much at home in Montagne! The proof is in its varietal character, with intense floral notes, spices and red berries. The freshness is also underlined on the palate, right from the start, where the wine takes on a linear, slender, balanced yet powerful character. A savoury, salivating wine, underpinned by tight tannins and an incisive acidic structure that is sure to hold up well, very well indeed! Now - 2044
INFOS
Presentation
2022 is undoubtedly a great vintage in Bordeaux, but it's also an exceptional one for the centenary of our château: new, unique micro-vintages made from a single grape variety are being created to mark the centenary of the château.
This 100% Malbec expresses the power and the indomitable character of this grape variety.
The vintage
The 2022 vintage is a special one, one that counts and will count. Our vines have shown incredible resilience in the face of record drought and high temperatures, producing dense, concentrated, fresh and fruity red wines. This surprising vintage could well surpass previous ones and leave an indelible mark on the history of our vineyards.
