From purchased grapes. All their negociant cuvees they pick themselves on their date of choice. This comes from a grower who has been organic for 20 years. 30% whole bunch vinification. Dark fruit, little bilberries. Solid, workmanlike, almost too concentrated and not quite elegant enough. Some sun-dried cherries here. Ready to bottle. Drink from 2026-2030. 87-90 points
