In creating this cuvée they wanted to try to make the best possible red wine. They set aside a barrel from their best terroir: their old 1er cru "Clos de Tavannes" vine; it is from a one-year-old barrel which brings a fine oakiness which does not mark the wine too much. The result is a complete wine, concentrated with black fruit aromas, powerful on the palate with an elegant tannic structure.
