Château Belgrave 2022 – Haut-Médoc Grand Cru Classé

The nose is elegant, racy, precise with a lovely fresh and frank grain. There is a certain complexity with notes of blackberry, small fleshy fruits and more lightly blueberry associated with a touch of pulpy blackcurrant as well as hints of flint and graphite. There is a fine note of fresh cloves. The palate is fresh, balanced, mineral with fruit and juiciness. There is a certain shine as well as an airy side. We have notes of pulpy and juicy blackberries, pulpy and juicy blackcurrant and small notes of fresh raspberries associated with touches of violet, fresh lily as well as a hint of licorice stick and a note of graphite and pepper in bottom. The tannins are supple and fresh. A subtle good bitterness on the finish and on the lingering.
