2019 Chateau St. Jean Cabernet Sauvignon Cinq Cepages

An inky black hue, the 2019 Cinq Cepages is concentrated with black plum, graphite, crushed pine needles, and menthol. A ripe, full-bodied red blend with velvety texture and a ripe but clean finish, notes of boysenberry compote, turned earth, and tea leaf fill the palate. It’s well-done and will drink well over the next several years.
