Château Lyonnat 2021 – Lussac Saint-Emilion

The nose is fruity and reveals a fine grain, a fine stretch and a fine intensity. There are notes of blackberry, ripe wild berries and more lightly cuben pepper combined with delicate touches of bergamot, a hint of violet, lily as well as discreet spice, a fine touch of graphite and a very discreet almost saline touch. The palate offers minerality, fruit and a certain juiciness/crunchiness. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy blackberry, bright raspberry and more lightly pulpy cherry combined with hints of lily, violet, a subtle almost rose, almost incense-like quality as well as discrete hints of racy minerality and chocolate.
