Round and fleshy reds with a velvety texture, showing aromas of ripe plum, black cherry, cocoa and truffle notes with age. Supple tannins, generous alcohol, indulgent finish. Pillar of Libournais (Pomerol with Pétrus, Saint-Émilion with Cheval Blanc and Ausone) and signature of Super Tuscans, Italian Wales and Washington State. A cross of Cabernet Franc × Magdeleine Noire, France's most planted red variety.

The wine region of Rogue Valley
Warm, high-altitude AVA (300-600 m) of southern Oregon: signature Tempranillo as the royal red — structured and flavoursome with notes of cherry, plum, leather, tobacco and a touch of spice, round tannins. Elegant, peppery Syrah in emblematic support (blackberry, blackcurrant, garrigue). Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Viognier succeed as warm-climate grapes. Fresh high-altitude Pinot Noir.
The wine region of Oregon
American benchmark for fresh, elegant Pinot Noir. Fine, silky reds with signature notes of red cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, undergrowth and spice, delicate tannins and taut freshness — the closest style to Burgundy outside France. Iconic Willamette Valley on volcanic (Jory) and marine soils. Also precise, mineral Chardonnay, ample Pinot Gris (pear, honey), taut Riesling.
The word of the wine: Broker
In the past, he was a sort of fraud control agent who had to watch over the quality of merchant wines (he could carry a sword!). His function has evolved towards expertise (it was the brokers who established the famous 1855 classification in Bordeaux) and today he puts the producer in contact with the merchant.
