The 2018 Clos Floridene is wonderfully polished and refined right out of the gate. Dried herbs, spice, leather and earthy undertones give the 2018 striking aromatic presence. Deceptively medium in body, the 2018 is persistent through to the finish. Clos Floridene is an unusually polished Graves with tons of personality.

Editors' Choice <br> One of the properties of the Dubourdieu family, this estate has made a rich wine, packed with tannins as well as black fruits. It has concentration and wood-aging flavors that are still prominent, but the future looks good.

Stylish, with a mix of cherry, currant and plum notes that glide through, supported gently by a kiss of toast and notes of red tea and tobacco leaf. Ends with a subtle iron twinge through the finish. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Drink now through 2028
