Each 750 mL bottle of this 2016 vintage carries the legacy of its superb terroir and the meticulous care in its making.

Tasting Notes: The 2016 vintage is a robust blend, primarily of Cabernet Sauvignon, offering a rich and complex bouquet of ripe blackcurrant, cedar, and subtle spices. On the palate, it reveals layers of dense, juicy berry fruit, framed by silky tannins and a well-integrated oak character. The finish is long and impressive, with hints of chocolate and tobacco, reflecting the classic structure and sophistication expected from a top-tier Pauillac.

Vinification: This wine is crafted from grapes grown on the estate’s prime vineyards in the heart of the Pauillac appellation, known for its deep gravel soils. The vinification process is carried out with utmost precision, with fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, followed by extended aging in French oak barrels to enhance its complexity and longevity.
