I had a 2018 Barde Haut that I found flabby. I liked the 2015 Barde Haut a lot more. Honestly, Dan, I thought the 13.5% 2018 Cantemerle tasted more like a Burgundy. Loved it.

Barde Haut was once a QPR, BWE-anointed go-to. But compared to Cantemerle, in the immortal words of Gertrude Stein, there's no "there" there.

Yeah this 2018 Barde Haut had no edge to it, very weak.
I was pleasantly surprised when I uncorked one of my five remaining 2015 Barde Haut about a month ago.
