Description

Château Peyrabon 2018 presents a brilliant fruit, with refined oak. The wine displays on the palate a powerful structure with well-defined tannins, perfectly balanced by the presence of a vibrant fruit of energy evolving smoothly in the mouth.

Blend: 49% Cabernet Sauvignon, 44% Merlot, 7% Petit Verdot

Critical Acclaim

V92
Vinous
The 2018 Peyrabon has a very agreeable bouquet of blackberry, raspberry and briary aromas, the oak nicely integrated and feeling natural. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and crunchy red fruit tinged with cedar and pine. It is a bit chunky on the finish, but I admire the freshness and substance, and the oak is judiciously used. Good winemaking, good wine.

Blackcurrant, tea-leaf, mocha and some praline aromas. It’s medium-to full-bodied with firm, tight-grained tannins. Flavorful and structured. Drink from 2022.
