Product Description
90 points Vinous
"The 2016 La Vaisinerie has a subtle, complex bouquet of red berry fruit, sage, rose petals and a touch of tobacco. It just needs some coaxing from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannin and unashamedly classic in style. The classy, tobacco-tinged finish feels long and satisfying. Excellent."

The average age of the vineyard is 35 years old. The appellation « Puisseguin-Saint-Emilion » is said “satellite” of Saint-Emilion. This appellation covers 730 ha. The clay and limestone soil, similar to Saint-Emilion, enables a good water supply for the vine, perfect in case of drought.
