Les Perrières 2022 – Pomerol

The nose is elegant, spicy, floral and offers a beautiful velvety and intense grain. It reveals notes of boysenberry, nutmeg and small notes of cardamom associated with touches of tonka bean, toast as well as hints of ripe wild black fruits, cornflowers, blue plum and fine hints of smoke. The palate is beautifully juicy, fresh, elegant and offers a tangy side/acidity of limestone, precision, jutosity, density, deepness and mellowness, a vibrant side, a beautiful energy as well as a beautiful sapidity. On the palate this wine expresses notes of bright cassis, juicy blackberry and small notes of tangy/juicy violet plum associated with touches of crushed raspberry, toast as well as hints of mocha and discreet hints of cardamom. Tannins are chalky. A beautiful mellowness and a juicy/acidulous side on the finish. Beautiful persistence. A nice acidity and a slight bitterness of roasting in the background. We also find a floral hint and an acidity of ripe red fruits on the persistence.
