The 2018 'Right Bank Blend' is a fantastic showing in this vintage. This blend of 47% Cabernet Franc, 26% Cabernet Sauvignon, 26% Merlot and l% Petit Verdot opens to inviting aromas of black cherries and dark currants that merge with spices, cigar box, peppery herbs all taking shape. On the palate this possesses a gorgeous textural richness with remarkable balance and structure. Beautifully polished tannins lead the way as this displays excellent concentration with lovely touch of underlying acidity providing a wonderful sense of freshness through the finish. This will have a long graceful evolution ahead and only become more compelling over time.
