“GC” stands for Grand Cru and is regarded as one of the top cuvees in Cahors region of France. Very nice black dress. The nose is an explosion of black fruits, violets and spices. Already highly complex. The mouth is a great race, crisp, creamy, fruity infinite in length. This wine has a lot of class.

FOR THE 2010 VINTAGE
Very rich and solid, this is a wood-laden wine with equally powerful fruit. Acidity is strongly present to keep the jammy black fruits fresh, while the tannins are big, concentrated and still young. The wine needs aging, so drink after 2018.
