Chateau St Jean 'Cinq Cepages' 2018 Review

The nose has a distinct fruit liqueur aroma along with the sweetness of a plum preserve. The alcohol is quite high in this wine but the depth of fruit does a great job of not allowing heat to overwhelm. The acidity is low but enough to not let the fruit character weigh your palate down.
