2018 | Château Peyrabon | Haut-Medoc

Château Peyrabon 2018 presents a brilliant fruit, with refined oak. The wine displays on the palate a powerful structure with well-defined tannins, perfectly balanced by the presence of a vibrant fruit of energy evolving smoothly in the mouth.

Reviews:

• Decanter: Sweet black cherry and blackberry fruits, with good balance and freshness on the finish. Mouthwatering, with touches of grilled rosemary, pepper and woodsmoke. A consistent success rate at this property that is owned by Millésima négociants. Vineyards of gravel and sand soils over a clay subsoil. aged in 25% new oak.

• James Suckling: Blackcurrant, tea-leaf, mocha and some praline aromas. It’s medium-to full-bodied with firm, tight-grained tannins. Flavorful and structured.
