Tasting notes
-
To the eye
Very dark purple color.
-
On the nose
Dense and floral bouquet typical of Petit Verdot.
-
In the mouth
Soft and silky tannins, yet fresh and energetic. The well-integrated oak supports the dense palate. Long and silky finish with a hint of salinity at the end.

Jacobin Convent
The history of Couvent des Jacobins dates back to the 14th century, when Dominican friars arrived in the heart of the medieval city. A family property since its acquisition by Jean Jean in 1902, the estate's wines combine complexity, density, and great finesse on the palate.
