Vinous

The 2018 La Garricq, which is owned by Château Paloumey, has an attractive, quite floral bouquet of well-defined black fruit infused with crushed violet, driven by the 15% Petit Verdot. The palate is medium-bodied, plush and luxurious, with a silky-smooth texture and fine acidity. The ripe, almost opulent cassis and blueberry finish is unapologetically modern, but quite classy and persistent. This is an excellent Moulis that should age with style.
