Tasting Notes
The “La Dîme” plot benefits from a privileged location below the famous ” Madone “. A splendid exposure in the high and sloping part of the appellation. The nose is powerful with aromas of black fruits and spices. The mouth feel is generous and full of ripe fruit flavours. The tannins have a good presence with nice grains. A wine with excellent ageing potential.
