Medium intensity nose of cherry, dusty raspberry, blueberry and violets. Dry, medium acidity and tannins make this an easy drinking wine. Quality wine with a moderate finish.
Notes on the Producer
Upstream from Bordeaux along the Garonne River lie the vineyards of Buzet, just north of Armagnac and southwest of Cahors. Buzet was recognized as an Appellation in 1973, as it’s clay limestone soils are ideal for Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Christophe tends to these vines with the utmost respect for biodiversity of the terroir and this cuvée is vinified without oak.
