La Prade Francs Cotes De Bordeaux Johnston 2024

The 2024 La Prade is fabulous. In fact, the 2024 is one of the very best vintages I have tasted. The change of blend in favor of Cabernet Franc has significantly elevated La Prade. Dynamic and vibrant in the glass, with striking depth, the 2024 is seriously impressive. Espresso, mocha, licorice, incense and lavender lift a core of blue/purplish fruit. This is one of the revelations of 2024. Don’t miss it! Drinking window: 2026-2034. (Antonio Galloni,Other)
