Moderate reduction is enough to dominate the fruit today but there is very good freshness and verve to the big-bodied, bold and robust flavors that are blessed with an abundance of dry extract that does a fine job of buffering the very firm tannic spine shaping the strikingly complex and persistent finale. Champonnets is always better in very warm and/or hot vintages and 2018 is a fine example of that.
