2015
This merchant house, with labels that carry a classic Frenchman's mustache, has made a soft rounded wine with attractive red-berry fruits. It is juicy and full of acidity that finishes the wine with a crisp aftertaste.
-
2014
This broad, ripe wine has plenty of ripe red fruits but the minimum of structure. It is soft, generous and ready to drink. Much of the hand-picked production is from old vines on a 45-degree slope.

2013
The wine is full of acidity as well as bright raspberry and red currant fruits. It has a light, fresh feel that's given added weight by firmer fruit tannins and a concentrated dry aftertaste. Drink from 2016.

2012
Full, ripe and smoky, this well-balanced wine has a dense texture to offset the bright red fruits and acidity. Spice, smoky flavors and a fresh red fruit aftertaste give a ready-to-drink feel.
