TASTING NOTE: In 1976, Anne-Marie Liegeois said goodbye to her life in Champagne and left for the United States with her husband, Tom Hedges. The happy couple's daughter, Sarah Hedges Goedhart, is the winemaker at the family estate, and she matured this blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah in a 50-50 combo of French and American oak for nine months. It shows dark plum, cherry and currants, with spicy notes and lovely structure. Pair with flavourful cheeses, pastas or smoked-meat sandwiches. (Vintages panel, Sept. 2018) |
