A plot of 0.75ha, planted in 1932, and purchased in January 2021. Much of the work here needs to be done by hand. The vineyard, La Roche Pilée, is on friable pink granite, which contributes to the small size of the berries (I am told!). Medium deep crimson purple. The nose has more depth and more class, dark raspberry with a touch of spice, fills the mouth very nicely, a little sucrosity, the fruit covers the tannic structure. 13.4% alcohol. Drink from 2027-2033.
