Merchant's description
Le Bon Pasteur 2000 presents a dark plum hue, indicative of its maturity. The nose offers notes of earth, underlined by subtle hints of truffle and tobacco, alongside darker fruits such as blackberry and black cherry. On the palate, it displays a rounded body with a velvety texture and balanced tannins. The finish is lengthy, integrating flavours of dried herbs and a hint of cedar. Produced by Michel and Dany Rolland.
