The Verhaeghe family have been making wine in the Lot since the 1950s. Today it is Pascal and Jean-Marc in charge of the domaine, which is certified organic. They own three parcels of vineyards, the largest of which is 12.5 acres with stony calcareous clay which is called `Tran`, which plays an important role retaining heat and moisture. Drawing on his winemaking experience from California to Burgundy.

A deep, dark red hue sets the stage for a wine with an intense yet elegant blackcurrant, plum and cedar aromas. On the palate, it is wonderfully smooth and round, delivering vibrant dark fruit flavours with exceptional intensity combining with spice and oak.
