Note di degustazione
Ample and fleshy, the 2018 Branas Grand Poujeaux is a medium to full-bodied, supple, fruit-driven wine evocative of violets, ripe cherries and berries, framed by a sweet patina of new oak. Generous and extrovert, it's one of the commune's flashier, more modern-styled wines, without losing its Bordelais identity.

The 2018 Branas Grand Poujeaux was consistent with my previous tasting note. This remains quite backward on the nose, blackberry and briary, becoming floral with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied and seems to have firmed up in recent months, though there is plenty of depth towards the tobacco-infused finish. This should give 12 to 15 years' drinking pleasure. Tasted at the Branas Grand Poujeaux vertical at the château.
Tasted blind. Looks quite evolved. Sweet and lacks a bit of freshness but OK if drunk soonish. Despite dryish tannins – food definitely needed! (JR)
Dark glowing crimson. Sweet start – much sweeter than you would expect from a red bordeaux. Very flattering. Atypical but should please many. (JR)
