Comment
Winemaker's note: Wine vinified by Alexandre & Henri Gaunoux, who had just returned to the estate at the end of World War I, having survived as a soldier. Weather conditions: The summer saw very little rain. The Rugiens harvest is marked by finesse. Harvest around September 25th.
(*)As the wines are lying in France, French VAT at a rate of 20% will be added to the hammer price and the buyer’s commission.
