The deep garnet-purple colored 2018 Boyd-Cantenac features smoked meats

Immensely sweet and rich

Discreet but not invisible wood is present on the overtly floral-suffused nose that displays background hints of lemon rind and a phenolic character (think olive oil nuances)

with a hint of black pepper in the cherry centric

and the wine was matured for 18 months in 45% new French oak

Coursodon, Saint-Joseph Paradis Saint Pierre other_regions_italy The deep garnet-purple colored 2018Very juicy, almost sappy, with dark berry and plum fruit laced with mouthwatering mesquite and iron notes, followed by a long, fleshy finish. Shows impressive depth for the vintage. Not imported into the U. S. Drink now through 2011. 290 cases made. JM
