Grape Variety

Cabernet Sauvignon

Producer

Tanguy Chevalier

There’s more Cabernet Sauvignon in the Quintessence, and this is in evidence on the nose with genuine complexity from ripe bramble fruit, slightly more oak with notes of cedar, clove, wood smoke, coffee, cassis, plum and black cherry. This is an absolute hit: who needs Bordeaux when there are wines like this at a fraction of the price? Complex with integrated oak, plenty of acidity and tannins, long length and flavours of oak, black fruit and spice. Keep it for a bit. 2026-2030–MP
