Château Cantinot 2017 – Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux

The nose is fruity, racy and slightly powerful. It reveals notes of blackberry, strawberry and small notes of bulb / flowers associated with discreet touches of small red berries, racy minerality as well as a very discreet toasted hint / spices and cocoa. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, juicy, mineral and offers a beautiful acid frame, suavity, tension, a good freshness as well as precision. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy strawberry, juicy red berries and small notes of cassis combined with a hint of juicy / fresh cherry, fresh blackberry, liquorice, bulb / varietal as well as discreet / imperceptible toasted hints / chocolate (in the background). Tannins are well-built.
