The Winery

Levet, Bernard

It was with the formidable 1983 vintage that Bernard Levet took over the wine production as well as the management of the vineyard with Nicole. This exceptional couple has now been responsible for the development of the domaine, increasing the vineyard holdings and expanding the cellar capacity so that they can now bottle their entire production. Nicole and Bernard have now been joined by their daughter, Agnes, who has inherited the love for vineyard work and obsession with detail that are essential parts of her parents’ character.

Tasting Notes

WS94
Terrific, with exotic plum and fig fruit that verges on overripe, but is quickly harnessed by bacony toast, tangy iron and black olive notes. The long, dark, coffee bean-filled finish has sauvage hints in the background. Great grip, thanks to superb acidity. The vintage character amps up the terroir. Drink now through 2021. 150 cases imported.
