St. Laurent Reserve
St. Laurent Reserve has a dark purple colour and an intense bouquet of dark berries. Well-balanced on the palate, it is rich in fruit, with notes of cherry and dark berries, and has an elegant, medium- to full-bodied character. Reduced yields mean that only enough fruit is produced to make less than one bottle of wine per vine.
