The 2018 Haut-Chaigneau has an attractive nose of dusky black fruit, tobacco and dark plummy scents, plus a hint of dark chocolate in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins on the entry, lacking a bit of depth on the midpalate and showing some wood tannins on the finish. Not bad, but short-term drinking only.Inc.
