This is one that will be hard to keep!

Château La Couronne

Mähler-Besse, owner of Cheval Noir in Saint-Émilion since the beginning of the century, acquired Château La Couronne in 1992 and acquired the means essential to the production of great wines. This fruit-focused vintage, produced from limited yields and long macerations, is very attractive.
