Using the best parcels in the area, the quality of Philippe's wines are truly outstanding and demonstrate just how good wines from this area of France can be.

Deep purple with violet hints. Intense and powerful nose, characterised by hints of ripe blackberry and black cherry. A gentle vegetal note brings freshness.The palate is juicy, packed with fruit and a touch of spice and bay, with a fine texture and beautiful tannic structure. Long and powerful.

The grapes are mechanically harvested at night. They are de-stemmed and then undergo a traditional vinification: daily pumping over to extract the colour, tannins and aromas. Fermentation lasts around 2 weeks before running-off, racking and pressing. Maturation is carried out in concrete tanks.
