Tasting Notes
JancisRobinson.com 18.5
53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 43% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot. Barrel sample. A joyous wine that bristles with zest and energy. Clearly not the super-concentration of the 2018 (when the mildew-reduced yield was only 11 hl/ha), but rich and profound and a degree more elegant. Morello cherry and dark-fruit aromas. Beautiful texture, the tannins present but refined. Fresh and vibrant with a long, palate-cleansing finish. (JL)
