Malbec gives birth here to an exuberant cuvée, full of fruit (cherry, blueberry, raspberry, some yellow fruits), enhanced with notes of menthol and smoke. Velvety, full-bodied, with melted tannins and length. A very successful wine."

La Commandery is a blend of the best terroirs, all located on the 3rd terraces (Upper Mindel terrace).
These are thin soils of very old gravelly, clay-siliceous alluvium.

The 2020 vintage was aged for 4 and a half years before bottling. Half of the cuvée was aged in barrels for 15 months. Thus, as soon as it is bottled, the wine presents a melted tannic structure and a very discreet woodiness that respects the fruit and the terroir.

The 2020 Commandery is above all characterized by its great finesse. It expresses a subtle and rich palette of aromas, of flowers, blackcurrant and blackberry, toasted almond and vanilla, to name but a few. The palate is smooth, with melted tannins.
Its delicacy allows it to accompany subtle dishes such as white meats or veal sweetbreads. However, it will not shy away from a regional dish based on pork or duck.
It can be enjoyed now but can be kept for 15 years or more.
