Château La Dauphine 2019 – Fronsac

On the nose it is fruity, elegant and offers power with finesse, a little richness (in finesse), depth as well as subtlety. It reveals notes of pulpy blackberry, bright raspberry and more slightly crushed berries associated with touches of violet, lily as well as hints of toasted hazelnut, almond, with a discreet hint of pepper and fresh tobacco. On the palate it is fruity, elegant and offers gourmandize, balance, juiciness, suavity, a beautiful freshness, a certain unctuosity, a tangy texture as well as fat in finesse. The wine expresses notes of pulpy blackberry, crushed cassis and more slightly of juicy / tangy redcurrants associated with a touch of pulpy plum, fine hints of violet, lilac, chocolate, toasted hazelnut as well as a very discreet hint of bergamothe and vanilla (in the background). Tannins are precise and smooth. Good length.
