94 Pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

it has maximum concentration and body but it still has finesse

while the palate offers refinement

clear honey and freshly baked bread

Clos du Roy Fronsac, France 2018 Cheval Blanc 94 Pts Robert Parker's WineThe 2018 Clos du Roy is made up of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec. Deep garnet purple colored, it delivers profound baked plums, boysenberry and cassis notes with touches of chocolate box, underbrush and truffles. Medium to full bodied and packed with generous black fruits, it has a velvety texture and lively line, finishing savory. 93 Pts Robert Parker
