Sep 27th, 20242018 vintage. Mainly Cabernet Sauvignon (95%), with Cabernet Franc (4%) and Petit Verdot. I am grateful to have met Kandice and Mark Jessup here in Blaye and taste their wines. Impressive aromatics, a panoply of black fruits, dark chocolate, and Pauillac-like lead pencil (Lynch-Bages comes to mind). Impeccable balance of succulent fruit, high quality tannins and fresh acidity. Intense, profound and very long. Amazing wine and very good value for Napa (about 105 $). Abv. 14,8%.

Mark and Kandice Jessup make this wine and this brand amazing due to their history making great wines in Napa (Opus One), and due to their gracious hospitality. If you ever get the chance to visit their home and taste their collection, you will understand their commitment to making a high quality product and brand. Amazing hosts.
