Tasting notes
Les Hauts des Coteaux is a wine issued from 50 years old vines located in our best hillsides with low yields (less than 30hl per hectare) to obtain maximum concentration. As the crop has been sorted out and picked at high maturity, the wine has a complex structure. Aged in barrels, it enhances aromas of vanilla, grilled toasts and liquorice.
