Tasting notes
The 2018 The Discussion checks in as 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. It's a juicy, medium-bodied, elegant red revealing a brilliant perfume of mostly red and blue fruits as well as ample spice, flowers, and subtle herbal nuances. I love its texture, it has ultra-fine tannins, terrific balance, and a great finish. It's one heck of an impressive blend from this estate that will keep for 10-15 years.

A deep but scented nose, with an attractive gravel note added to the aroma profile of blueberries, cassis and plums. Full-bodied and tight on the palate, showing well-crafted tannins that are tight and supportive to the juicy berries and plush oak spices. Long and layered finish. Drinkable now, but better from 2024.
