WineDiva's Review

Classic, fresh, savoury.
Consistently a classic example of Cabernet Franc, this Les Epinats 2018 is riper than the previous vintage and suggests smoked plums and ripe cherry, baking spice, white pepper, cocoa, grilled andouillette, leather and tealeaf. The palate is a muddle of red fruits cocoa, spice and savoury/salty flavours. Good length and freshness; starting to show tertiary flavours.
A wine made better with food and with a slight chill.
