Domaine Berthoumieu is owned by Didier Barré, who took over for his father Louis in the mid-1980s. His top cuvee, this come from vines that are at least 50 years old planted to clay and rocky limestone soils.

Tannat is famous for its deep color and strong tannins, and this is not exception. It shows ripe black and red fruit with cedary oak, which is very well-integrated.
