The 2018 L'If is super-impressive even if it comes across as a bit restrained today. Ultimately that energy will serve it well. Dark and sensual with striking aromatic presence and fabulous balance the 2018 dazzles from start to finish. Dark cherry plum spice new leather menthol and mocha all build in the glass. The 2018 is bold sumptuous and full of energy. I can't wait to see how it ages. What a wine. - By Antonio Galloni on March 2021
vThe 2018 L'If is blended of 74% Merlot and 26% Cabernet Franc to be aged 12-16 months in barriques 50% new. The wine has a pH of 3.55 and 14.5% alcohol. Deep purple-black in color it gives up a beautiful perfume of baked raspberries mulberries and Black Forest cake with hints of fragrant soil rose hip tea and dusty soil. Full-bodied rich and jam-packed with generous red and black fruits framed by velvety tannins it has wonderful savory chocolate and licorice accents and a long spicy finish. Published: Apr 23 2019
