Had side by side with a CdP (2017 Ch La Nerthe Cuvee des Cadettes) with friends. Leathery red fruited wine with smooth mouth coating tannins and some earthy notes. Was more savory than the CdP. Complex with an incredible finish. Should probably call this wine Magnifico!

Purchased at the vineyard in CdP last year as one of three vintages selected for purchase during a vertical tasting. Uncorked last night over dinner with friends who unanimously agreed that this was outstanding. Juicy wine and more fruit forward than I recollect. Red cherries, raspberries and some black fruit. There is a touch of wood which adds to the complexity while letting the fruit do the talking. Wow!

Balanced - flinty and not excessively acidic or oaked. Nice finish
