Comment
Winemaker's note: Wine vinified by François Gaunoux. Weather conditions: A hailstorm in August, almost no rain throughout the year, and a very hot September. This resulted in very few, but very ripe grapes. The Rugiens are both structured and fine. An exceptional vintage. Harvest around September 19th.
(*)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.
