"The Hachette Guide to French Wines" 2010 Edition has just been released. We are excited to be included once again!

The cover of the 2010 edition of \

The excellent Hachette Guide is considered the French Wine Bible. Eight hundred French experts have put over 28,000 wines through the most rigorous of tests to produce this reference book. Unlike other guides this one does not accept advertising and all wines are judged on blind tastings. Presently, it is available only in French. The English version is released one year later.

“The Hachette Guide to French Wines” is currently viewed in the wine world as being the most authoritative. Last year they included our 2005 vintage. The review they released concerning our 2006 is as follows:

'For the new owners of this property, who came in 2006, this first vintage is particularly noteworthy for its deep red body, which opens on a rich nose of jammy fruits and herbal undertones.

In the mouth, it is round and soft, revealing flavours of spice and black fruits with elegant and well-balanced tannins.

Decant before tasting.'

We are pleased that they included us in their 2010 edition.
