Vintage 2018

Report and recommendations for the 2018 Bordeaux vintage

by Andrew Caillard MW

2018 is an exceptional year. Bordeaux whites and Sauternes are very good, but from an Australian perspective, the excitement is all in the red wines.

Written Notes

Rabaud Promis - 90% Semillon and 10% Sauvignon Blanc. I start with an eye-catching bottle, heavy stuff, looks like it's made from crystal, has a kind of necklace containing four paper clips. One with QR scan to go directly to property's website, second explaining how to make Rabaud French Martini, third explaining how to use to large screw cap and fourth containing the property's history. All that in French and English. Spectacular and smart, wouldn't you say?! What about the liquid inside the bottle? As spectacular as the bottle? Yes, very close indeed. I've to say that I've never tasted so exciting vintage from this property! Plenty of peaches and apricots, sweet pineapple and mango, remarkable finesse and elegance, rich, splendid acidity and long aftertaste full of honey. Striking change to the better compared with the barrel sample. Simply amazing for the vintage! 95p (92p).
