Last night I opened the 2018 Clos Badon Thunevin Grand Cru Saint-Emilion Right Bank Bordeaux. Blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc.
On the nose there is black cherry, blackberry, plum, herbal notes, mocha, lavander, cassis and graphite.
On the palate there is black cherry, plum, black raspberry, strawberry, mocha, green bell pepper, graphite and earth.
This beautiful wine is full bodied with a smooth silky mouthfeel medium + acidity and medium + sweet round grainy tannins that move smoothly to a long red and black fruit crushed gravel finish. I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend and found rest and relaxation. We all now look forward to the week ahead, let us all be kind to one another and make this a great week. Please stay safe and healthy. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷
