Trying the ‘18 vintage. Just as dense and with grippy tannins as previous. Takes 90 minutes to decant and then starts shining. Beautiful layers of cassis. -46% Syrah, with the cab components rounding out the profile (37%). Edgy Petit Verdot (17%) provides a lot of structure. Not for the faint of heart. 😎
