Château Soutard Saint Emilion 2020

This has boysenberry and mulberry fruit spilling forth, with a red licorice note that drapes over the friendly, polished finish. Light-handed on the toast and avoids the vintage's slightly grainy feel. Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec. Drink now through 2030. 5,000 cases made.
