Cuvée à nos pères
A limited-edition release of 1,400 numbered bottles.
In honor of our elders Henri Benet and René Gartich, this exclusive vintage is made from grape varieties aged exclusively in amphorae, revealing a powerful aroma in which the fruit takes center stage.
Notes of ripe fruit, spices, and pepper.
A dynamic and elegant attack. Silky, enveloping tannins. A smooth mouthfeel accompanied by aromas of black fruit, spices, and peppery notes.
Perfect as a side dish with a game dish.
