Introduction:
An elegant and layered red from the satellite appellation of Puisseguin–Saint-Émilion, this wine combines the finesse of Bordeaux with the deeper intensity of right-bank terroir. It offers structured fruit, refined tannins, and a poised elegance.

Terrior:
Sourced from clay-limestone soils on steep slopes east of Saint-Émilion, the vines benefit from optimal drainage and exposure. The cooler nights of the region help preserve natural acidity, while warm days encourage ripeness and aromatic complexity.

Appearance:
Deep ruby with garnet flecks appearing at the rim, indicating both maturity and vibrancy.

Nose:
Layered aromas of black cherry, plum, and cassis are complemented by subtle notes of violet, pencil lead, and cedar. With aeration comes a nuance of cedar, clove, and baking spices.

Palate:
Medium-full-bodied, the palate unfolds with flavors of ripe dark fruit—blackberry and Morello cherry—interwoven with earthy undertones and a touch of graphite. The tannins are fine-grained and well-integrated, providing elegance and length without overpowering its fruit.

Finish:
Long and poised, with lingering savory spice, dark fruit, and hints of tobacco and mineral accents that echo its structured profile.

Overall Impression:
A charming and versatile red that captures the heart of Bordeaux’s right bank. It can be enjoyed now with decanting or cellared for another 5–8 years. Ideal with roasted duck, grilled lamb, mushroom dishes, or classic French cuisine.
