Leroux notes the cooler, hillside fruit from Les Vaumuriens brings freshness and balance to the blend. […]

Fenugreek, cumin, violets, lavender, Turkish tobacco, red fruit compote and blackberry. Prickling with acidity, edgier and more angular than recent vintages, the Farrside’s savoury side on […]
