Depth and lift define Simon Blanchard Guitard 2018, with layers of dark cherry and plum compote edged by cocoa, dried herbs and a touch of coffee bean. The palate is medium to full-bodied yet graceful, showing fine, rounded tannins and impressive length, as vibrant red and blue fruits linger alongside subtle tobacco and mineral notes. This is a characterful, Cabernet Franc–driven Montagne Saint-Émilion that combines richness with real precision and energy.
