Estate Reserve 2018, 4.5 stars (92 points)
Classic restraint & firmness of structure on 2018, half cab with merlot, petit verdot, cab franc. Nothing overt, all in balance - though 5-10 years will bring harmony & complexity. Also 1.5L. Like all, spontaneous ferment; bottled unfined/filtered. Last tasted was 2016 (4 stars, 89 pts).
