Château Joanin-Becot, Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux, 2018

Fruit-filled and so easy to like. There are pretty strong tannins here, a little more evident than they were en primeur, with the austerity of limestone coming through, but what a great value wine with a ton of personality. Second vintage with Thomas Duclos as consultant and the first with new technical director Jean de Connick.
