Chateau Monbousquet, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, France 2018 Sonoma County rather than the simply grapeyEspresso crema and melted black licorice aromas give way to a lush range of cassis, plum reduction and blackberry confiture flavors that roll through with authority. Long finish is carried by a buried graphite note and hint of smoldering earth. An amped in style but if you like muscle and panache, you'll dig this. Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. 95 Pts Wine Spectator
