Somehow unknown to the general public because it is only distributed in specialized stores, this Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, produced by the Château la Fleur d'Arthus, deserves your full attention. It is generous, smooth and complex. A juicy wine that will marry a large number of red meat dishes for example.
