A joyful, juicy red Bordeaux from this organic-certified estate – Damien Lorteau having convinced his parents to start conversion when he joined the family property in 2010. It has all of the plum, cassis and blackcurrant leaf goodness, but what I especially love is the zing and zap of the fresh acidity; an energising tonic to a humdrum week.
