Mineral-driven aromatics of graphite and dried herbs mark this old-vine expression from Les Poyeux. The palate shows lovely tension. Lean yet persistent, with fine-grained tannins and bright acidity carrying savory fruit to a clean, mineral finish. Classic tuffeau character with appealing restraint.
