STORY BEHIND THIS WINE

The château here is owned by the Manoncourts who also run the prestigious Premier Grand Cru Classé château Figeac.

As if that wasnt enough, the average age of the vines here are 40 years old. 2018 was a great vintage for this producer, so this wine really ticks a lot of boxes and represents outstanding value. Read more.
