This rare terroir is planted of 72% of Merlot, 25% of Cabernet and 3% of Petit Verdot. The LAVAU family runs the estate since 8 generations now and make a complex, racy Saint-Emilion Grand Cru." —winemaker Blend: 70% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc, 5% Petit Verdot |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"This really pushes the envelope on ripeness and extraction, but manages to pull it off, thanks to the bright acidity and enormous vitality of the crushed-berry flavors. Long, rather firm finish. From organically grown grapes. Better from 2020." —James Suckling |
