Château de Villambis 2016 – Haut-Médoc, Cru Bourgeois

The nose is fruity. It reveals notes of cassis, wild strawberry and more slightly blackberry, violet associated with fine touches of liquorice as well as a discreet hint of caramelized oak. The palate is fruity, suave, mineral, well-balanced and offers a good definition as well as a fine acidulous/juicy frame. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy/ripe cassis, crunchy/juicy cherry and more slightly crunchy wild strawberry associated with discreet hints of liquorice, violet as well as a very discreet hint of cardamom (in the background) and vanilla (in the background). Tannins are well-built and structuring.
