Chateau Meyney, Saint-Estephe, France 2020 Case (6x750ml) Chilis and Hot Spicy Foods and 19% Cabernet SauvignonThe 2020 Chateau Meyney is a solid step up, with more elegance and finesse, as well as structure. Giving up medium bodied aromas and flavors of darker currants, black cherries, classy oak, tobacco leaf, and damp earth, it has terrific overall balance, building, fine grained tannins, and a great finish. It has some accessibility today yet will benefit from 3 5 years of bottle age and keep for two decades. 94 Pts Jeb Dunnuck
