Château La Rose Poncet – Ma part des anges 2018 – Castillon Côtes-de-Bordeaux

The nose is fresh, racy and offers a fine intensity as well as a certain / small concentration. There are notes of ripe / fresh cassis, violet and small notes of fresh black berries associated with touches of lilac, raspberry leaf as well as fine hints of crunchy strawberry and discreet hints of black Cuben pepper. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers minerality, a certain gourmandize, a certain creaminess, an aerial side in the approach, a good structure as well as dynamism / energy. On the palate this wine expresses notes of fleshy / fresh strawberry, pulpy / fresh cassis and small notes of fresh red berries associated with touches of violet, lily, zan, toast, vanilla bean as well as discreet hints of crushed almonds and a subtle hint of chocolate. Tannins are a bit firm and offer a small straightness. A wine full of balance.
