Château Haut Barrail 2010 -Médoc

The nose is fruity, elegant and offers gourmandize, power and a small intensity. It reveals notes of blackberry, grey pepper, small notes of small red fruits associated with touches of violet, cassis as well as hints of camphor and sweet spices. The palate is fruity, mineral and offers a beautiful freshness, fat, roundness. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy cassis, raspberry, small notes of violet associated with fine touches of blackberry, pulpy small red berries, cherry as well as touches of chocolate, toasted, sweet almond and vanilla. Good length. Tannins are elegant and well-built. A very discreet hint of tobacco on the persistence/aftertaste.
