L’Antique by Léo de Prades – 2018
Saint Estèphe
France,
Bordeaux,
Medium towards deep garnet colour. Pure nose offering wild berries, cassis, pepper and some herbal notes without any noticeable oak. Rather dense palate with a tannic backbone starting to soften, rather supple young fruit with a well balanced freshness and a long pure finish, still needing another 1-2 ears to fully soften but nice purity and potential.
