Winemaker's comments / Gastronomy 

Maison Louis Jadot produces a deep and colourful wine. It develops subtle aromas of violets and spices. With quite powerful tannins, it is a round, firm and very feminine wine. It will perfectly match with sophisticated dishes like meat in sauce, game and strong cheeses. 

Preservation 
Wine to age. It will certainly improve up to 15-20 years in a good cellar, and even more in good vintages.
