Château L’If is a relatively new Bordeaux wine, created by Jacques Thienpont, best known for owning the famous Pomerol property Le Pin. The 2018 vintage is considered the best L’If since their first vintage from 2011 and it’s presented here in a half bottle format. A blend composed of 74% Merlot and 26% Cabernet Franc, this is a rich, full-bodied wine, filled with plenty of red and black fruits, supported by very gentle tannins.
The 2018 L’If, which sees 50% new oak and 50% one-year-old wood, has a disarmingly lovely bouquet that veers more toward red fruit than black, offering raspberry and wild strawberry, hoisin and light marmalade aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins and quite saline on the entry, with good tension from beginning to end. Harmonious and almost understated toward the finish, it leaves light white pepper and sage notes on the aftertaste. This is an excellent L’If that should give 12–15 years of drinking pleasure. - Neil Martin
