PÉCHÉ DU ROY
Red Wine - A.O.C. Côtes de Bourg
Grand vin de Bordeaux
The garnet and black colour of its dress already heralds a wine of character that presents itself expressive and complex on the nose, opening onto fruity and then toasted flavours. Beautifully constituted, this "Péché du Roy" 2016 is characterized by a large volume in the mouth, with smooth, long and very elegant tannins.
