Description of the Wine
Red with purple tints. Its aroma evokes fresh fruit such as plum, cherry and black currant. Delicate notes of truffles, vanilla and cocoa emerge from its time in the barrel. In the mouth, its vigor, soft tannins and balanced acidity result in a well-balanced and very attractive wine, suitable for various pairings.

Winemaker’s Comments
The Moussai line reflects the first approach towards high-end wines. Its grapes come from carefully selected plots within the La Ronciere vineyards and are vinified under the same concept of fresh wines.
