Château Montlisse 2019 – Saint-Emilion Grand Cru

The nose offers elegance, energy, fruit, spices as well as a delicate floral side. It reveals notes of bright cassis and more slightly violet associated with touches of bright small blue fruits, lilac as well as very fine hints of spices and a subtle hint of black tea. The palate is fruity, balanced and offers juiciness, opulence, roundness, a fine tension as well as a certain gourmandize. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy / juicy raspberry, pulpy / juicy redcurrants and more slightly cornflowers associated with touches of lily, lilac, small hints of juicy / crunchy blueberry as well as fine hints of toasted, zan, almond and a subtle hint of black tea. Presence of a very discreet varietal hint (in the background) on the finish. Tannins are finely firm.
