The colour, of an engaging purple, has pretty ruby reflections. The bouquet offers us a palette of ripe fruit associated with liquorice, spicy and finely woody notes. The attack on the palate is full, almost sweet, with aromas of blackberry and raspberry that mingle with vanilla in a suave balance. The silky grain tannins support the tasting towards an elegant and soft finish.

The 2018 La Cardonne was tasted twice, one bottle a little muted but showing promise on the finish. The second was given more aeration and that was repaid. It offers attractive blackberry, briar, cedar and light marine aromas on a well-defined nose that is very focused and intense. The fresh, vibrant palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, well-pitched acidity and an almost citrus-like finish. Very harmonious and silky-smooth in texture. This is an outstanding Cru Bourgeois Superieur. Bravo!

This wine offers rich tannins and dense black fruits in equal proportions. The structure, with the dry core, shows great promise and the wine is definitely worth aging. Drink from 2024.
