This special 'cuvee', produced only in years with highly favourable weather conditions, is made from grapes harvested in the oldest part of the vineyard, where the vines are on average 60 years old; these old vines only produce very low yields of highly flavoured garpes. A long maceration followed by 18months in only new oak barriques results in a classic old-fashioned claret. Deeply coloured with a complex bouquet & rich, long finish.
