In 1986 Michel Mazier took over the estate and today manages the 6 hectare property. In 2010 they converted the vineyards to organic practices and were certified biodynamic in 2014.

This is a fragrant, floral and fruit forward red; notes of wild berries, light spice, leather, orange peel and underbrush.
