2018 Sansonnet

The 2018 Sansonnet is already super-impressive by nature. In recent years, the Sansonnet has been very opulent. The 2018 captures all that richness, but also has an extra kick of vibrancy that balances things out so well. The style is still concentrated, and there's plenty of new oak, but it all fits together well. Deep red fruits, chocolate, plum, rose petals and spice linger on the exotic finish. The 2018 is so expressive today. It is also simply delicious.
