Aromas of blackberries, black currants, ink and lead pencil are impressive, highlighting the quality of the cabernet sauvignon in this vintage. So perfumed. Spearmint undertones. Medium- to full-bodied, with ultrafine tannins that run the length of the wine. Silky and caressing with lovely persistence and depth. A fine St.-Estephe. 58% cabernet sauvignon, 39% merlot, 1.5% petit verdot and 1.5% cabernet franc. Better than 2022. Best after 2028 but already approachable.
