Reviews

1 étoile
"Une marque très ancienne de l'Union de Producteurs de Saint-Emilion, créée en 1935. La version 2021 répond à l'appel, offrant un joli nez friand autour de notes de fruits rouges, d'une trame souple et veloutée, assez gourmande, avec une finale parfumée. Un vin simple et efficace, de bon équilibre." [+]
