A ladder of Cabs from five decades, 1979-2019. This was the group’s #3 and my #2.

The 2019 Poesia has the richest and most opulent bouquet with precocious black cherry, glycerine, lavender and violet aromas, bursting from the glass and gaining intensity with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with plush, ripe tannins. There is a lot of puppy fat here, rounded and perhaps "sexy" compared to the 2018, mouth-filling and voluminous. This will need time. Tasted at the Poesia vertical in Saint-Émilion. (Neal Martin, Vinous, June 2022)

NOSE: dead mouse (mild, not as scary as it sounds, but to be fair, not delicious) — licorice, cassis, blackberry, dark earth. TASTE: more austere and mature than the nose would suggest … good streak of acidity, “polished” tannins (old, varnished wood), black cherry and blackberry … elegant. Age would be nice, but ... 93!

3.6. Vibrant almost explosive Saint Emilio’s. Quite an experience. Highly rated. On sale for $33.59, regularly $41.99. Worth the splurge.
