This wine is still to be bottled and as such the advertised ABV maybe be subject to change on its eventual arrival and inspection into the U.K.

Principally a field blend of their 35-year-old terraced Alampassa vineyards in the Torto River valley, aged in two-year-old barrels. Production was down 50% in 2024 and shows in a wonderfully deep nose of pressed dark flowers, creamy dark fruits. The site is south facing but there is great freshness and finesse, reflected in a no more than medium-body, showing some spicy, chalky grip, a lightly creamy breadth and juicy none-too-sweet fruits. Wonderfully balanced, notably elegant. In a word, snazzy! 0-7 years.

About En Primeur

Lying Abroad/En Primeur/In Bond Wines

Wines offered ‘Lying Abroad’ or ‘En Primeur’ provide a good way to secure some of the most sought after wines at opening prices. In addition we ensure it is the cheapest way to buy favourite mid-priced wines from Bordeaux, Burgundy and the Rhône, so please ask us for our offers or check our website for latest reports. Prices are clearly marked in our sales literature and are exclusive of duty, shipping, marine insurance and VAT. Shipment of claret and Port normally takes place around 30 months after the vintage, burgundy and Rhône usually more quickly. A second invoice for the duty, shipping, marine insurance and VAT on the value of the wine is charged at the time of shipment - view current duty rates. There are no further charges for deliveries to a UK mainland home or work address. Your Lying Abroad purchases are covered under The Bunch Code of Practice which can be sent on request or viewed here.
