La Bienfaisance Du Chateau Sanctus 2019 – Saint-Emilion Grand Cru

The nose is aromatic, racy and offers a small power, a fine intensity, a fine grain and deepness. It reveals notes of wild blackberry, wild cassis, small notes of iris, lilac associated with touches of small ripe/acidulous berries, a hint of small blue fruits, rose petal as well as very fine hints of grey pepper and an imperceptible hint of citrus zests. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a fine acidulous frame, juiciness, gourmandize as well as a good definition, precision, a fine tension and a fine grain. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy/pulpy cassis, an acidulous blackberry, small notes of small acidulous/juicy red fruits associated with hints of lily, iris as well as discreet hints of chocolate, toasted, a very discreet hint of mild tobacco and an imperceptible hint of citrus (in the background). Tannins are precise, racy and finely firm. A very discreet hint of crushed almond on the persistence. A fine sapidity on the finish.
