  The rich ripeness of this vintage has settled down some and this now delivers a superb Bojo experience. It oozes fresh red fruits but it's beautifully balanced by crisp acidity ending in an enthusiastic juicy finish. A real hit at the Passover table!

  Medium to dark ruby color. Ripe dark fruit coming through on the nose. Mostly black cherry and luxardo cherry. A bit of peppery spice and some purple floral notes as well. Similar flavors on the palate with a cherry cough drop flavor profile. Lots of ripe cherry fruit, almost cherry jam. Medium acidity and tannin and body. 2018 was a somewhat riper vintage and that definitely shows in this wine. This is one of the rare occasions that a cru bojo was better on its own than with food. So much ripe fruit coming through that it didn't pair well with dinner. Very nice wine though.

  OMG, opened and poured and the bouquet lept from the glass like a racehorse! Dark fruits, spices -- a cornucopia of various aromas too complex to separate out from each other. On the palate, the wine was velvet, perfectly in balance with perfect fruit, acidity and tannins soft as a baby's bottom. The wine had depth and tactile substance not often experienced, and with unbelievable length. This was the best wine i have tasted in years! One more in my cabinet!!!

  Opened and did not need to decant. Was accessible within 20-min. Still fresh, vibrant, and juicy, even for the hot vintage. Perfumed nose of potpourri, cloves, lavender, and forest floor. The palate is medium, square, and crunchy, bringing an earthy/rustic core of strawberry-rhubarb mixed with more cloves, wood smoke, and some high-toned cranberry notes. Drink 2024-2028. Technical score: 91. Enjoyment score: 93.
