Pairing Lamb, roasted red meats, game, aged cheeses
A great wine with a classic profile, in the glass it shows a deep, vivid colour. On the nose it opens with a bouquet of red and dark fruits, accompanied by light floral hints and delicate spices; the whole is compact but not overly laden. On the palate it is balanced, with present but well-integrated tannins and an acidity that supports the structure, delivering pleasant length and an even progression. While expressive, it retains an elegant restraint that invites both immediate drinking and a short rest in bottle.

It suits a variety of food pairings: it feels at ease with red meats, mushroom dishes, stews and hard cheeses; it can also enhance richer home-cooked preparations. Serve it at a moderate temperature, removing it from chill for a few minutes to best express aromas and flavours. For optimal enjoyment, consider a brief opening of the bottle before tasting.

Winery history
La viticoltura nell'area risale all'epoca romana e si è sviluppata intensamente nel medioevo grazie alla posizione sulla via di pellegrinaggio verso Santiago de Compostela; la giurisdizione e le tradizioni locali, come la Jurade, hanno contribuito a costruire la fama dei vini di Saint-Émilion.

Production philosophy
Valorizzare il legame tra territorio, pratiche tradizionali e qualità enologica: l'identità di Saint-Émilion si fonda sulla ricerca dell'espressione del terroir nei vini rossi e sul mantenimento di standard qualitativi attraverso un sistema di classificazione locale.
Terroir and vineyards
Situata nella Gironda, nella regione Nouvelle-Aquitaine, a est di Bordeaux (Right Bank), l'area combina suoli argillo-calcarei e collinari che favoriscono la coltivazione di Merlot e Cabernet Franc e una forte frammentazione dei cru.
