Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2018 Chantegrive charges out of the gate with notes of fresh black and red currants, ripe plums and mulberries, plus hints of menthol, pencil lead and tobacco leaf. The medium-bodied palate is chock-full of bright, crunchy black and red berry flavors, supported by plush tannins and a lively backbone, finishing with an invigorating lift.
