Raised in French oak barrels, this extraordinary wine reflects the organic and biodynamic viticulture practices of the Chêne Bleu estate, promising a robust structure with a splendidly long finish. A divine French masterpiece, Astralabe is a compelling choice for those appreciating a deep, full-bodied, and complex red wine. It pairs exquisitely with red meats and sophisticated cheeses.

Tasting Notes

Deep, intense garnet colour with hints of mahogany. Rich and complex on the nose with notes of ripe dark fruits, spice and mocha. Smooth and fruity with velvety tannins. Finishes long and aromatic.
