2018 is a stunning vintage for Bordeaux wine lovers. The wines are rich, opulent, concentrated, deep, and complex. The wines are going to age and evolve, yet many will offer pleasure with minimal aging due to their flamboyant, forward nature.
Pauillac is a contender for the appellation of the vintage. Every chateau produced stunning, deeply colored, richly textured, firm, elegant wines that already show fabulous style and character.
2018 Saint Estephe wines are just great. The warm, dry summer was close to perfect for everyone from top to bottom, offering great style, character and the ability to age and evolve for decades.
2018 St. Julien offers everything wine lovers could hope for. Everyone made great wine in a gorgeous, age-worthy style from top to bottom. Elegance meshed with power, refinement and charm.
2018 Pomerol at its best offers incredibly rich, hedonistic wine tasting experiences with velvet textured, opulent fruits and complex aromatics that will age for decades.
Margaux is not the most consistent appellation in the Medoc. But at their best, these are some of the best wines of the vintage. They offer sublime tasting experiences that are among the best wines in the histories of a few estates!
2018 Pessac Leognan consistently produced high quality, stylish, elegant, concentrated, supple red wines. Some estates made the best wine in their history! The whites are lush, creamy, round and are already showing quite well.
