It can also be cellared for several years, where it will continue to develop additional nuance and refinement. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Legacy Liquor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58162290000175,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0835\/9169\/2591\/files\/2023-R-Le-Repair-Lussac-St-Emilion-600x-fles.webp?v=1783872987","url":"https:\/\/legacyliquor.ca\/products\/le-repaire-lussac-st-emillion-bordeaux-750ml-1","provider":"Legacy Liquor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
