This cuvée, Pierre-Marie reliably informs me, is sourced from 12 hectares of vines planted in multiple parcels around the cellars in Landreau, the planting of which dates to 1974. The soils are micaschist and schist. It presents a nose of dried yellow peach, mirabelle and smoke. This is followed by a nicely polished style on the palate, being gently composed with a powdery phenolic backbone underneath a generous layer of white peach and apple, with modest but evident acidity, before it concludes with an appealingly bitter grip in the finish. Decent balance for the vintage. The alcohol on the label is 12%.  thewinedoctor.com Feb 2024

From vines planted 1974 grown on mica-schist with a bedrock of schist in the village of Le Landreau. Hand harvested and aged on lees for 7 months. On the palate the wine is pure and well defined, complex and beautifully focused, with solid mid-palate depth, nice framing acids and very good length on the classy finish.
