Tasted on Indy 500 race day—fitting, as this bottle delivers raw horsepower but not much excitement. The 2019 charges out with blackberries, cassis, and dark plum, backed by smoky oak and a streak of graphite. Tannins grip like performance tires—firm but not unruly—while hints of vanilla and dark chocolate round out the finish. More muscle car than precision instrument. And the ride feels more parade lap than photo finish.
I like the 2016 vintage better, a blend with 25% Saint Macaire and 25% Mourvèdre. — 5 months ago
