Les Naugues is François Raquillet`s best red, made from a 47-year-old parcel on marl soils that `need to be dominated`, in his opinion. Chalky, structured and intense with smoky, toasty 40% new wood, excellent underlying structure from tiny berries and the backbone and dark berry fruit to age well in bottle. Serious stuff.
