The domain's firstborn, Château L'Isle Fort is surely, according to specialized journalists, one of the best wines of its appellation.
The vines flourish at the center of an abundant and preserved biodiversity, giving the wine a delicate and floral scent with hints of fruits from the surrounding woods.
The power of Merlot and the finesse of Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon harmonize, under a silky dress, in the finesse of tannins, freshness, and elegance.
