"Lifted and floral with rose petal notes wrapped around a red, dense fruit core. Vibrant and energetic. Very good. Clay and Limestone soil. Aged for 11 months, 33% amphorae." Armit Wines

"The new site of Maladière has been integrated to the already used Les Clos and Les Nazoires. Mineral and restrained. Pretty and perfumed, this is a well-defined, classy wine. " Armit Wines

"The limestone-dominant 1er Cru produces a precise wine with enticing notes of white peach. Finishes intensely and lingers beautifully." Armit Wines
