Aromas of cassis, black fruit, blackberry leaves, mint chocolate, iodine and sandalwood. It's full-bodied with firm, polished tannins. Structured, dense and focused.

The 2019 Chateau Brown has a melange of red and black fruit on the nose, touches of espresso and tobacco emerging with time. Perhaps I was anticipating a little more complexity given the growing season. The palate is medium-bodied and quite saline, with a peppery opening, good tension, fine grip and decent length on the finish. Hopefully the aromatics will up its game, as this certainly has potential.

This ripe, smoky wine offers attractive red-berry fruits and layers of fine tannins. It is structured, with a dominance of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend.

Open and forward in feel, featuring a wave of warmed cassis, steeped plum and blackberry notes, with licorice and tar accents. Delivers a nice tug of earth on the finish, as the fruit keeps pace. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot.
