A true reference in the Sainte-Foy Côtes de Bordeaux appellation, La Réserve de Famille has made the property famous. A top-of-the-range wine, with sensual smoothness and great suppleness on the palate. Notes of blackberries, truffles and round, velvety tannins offer pleasure and finesse.

An unmissable great Bordeaux wine.
