  June 19, 2023 - Part of a small Bordeaux 2018 5-years on tasting. The wines were partially served single-blind. Main observations: 1/ the vintage pairs concentration and ripeness with weightless and elegant structures. 2/ tannins are generally finely grained and well-integrated. 3/ Extraction levels managed well with only 1 instance of heat and no overripe fruit. 4/ Best bottles were Canon and Pichon Longueville.
  
  Tasting note:
  Tasted blind. Polished and extracted to perfection showing fruit of freshly picked berries, on balance more black and cool in style. Densely packed with aromas, adding violets, smoke and well-integrated oak, spice and dried herbs. Full of stuffing, dense and facetted palate. spiced and dried herbs.
