Château Grangey – XXII, Cuvée Amphore 2022 – Saint-Emilion Grand Cru

The nose is aromatic, fruity, with a lovely elegant grain, airy and a certain intensity. It expresses notes of blackberry, spices and small notes of violet associated with touches of pepper as well as fine hints of blueberry, blackcurrant, tobacco, smoke and sweet pepper. A discreet and elegant nuance of dry earth in the background. The palate is elegant, nicely carried, fruity, suave, nicely fresh, racy (clay), with nice silkiness and freshness. It expresses notes of boysenberry, blueberry and small notes of wild raspberry associated with touches of bright wild blue berries, nutmeg, spices, tobacco and a fine almost saline hint. A creamy hint in the mouth, a nice silkiness, suppleness, freshness, purity, tension and gourmandise, with good bitters of dark chocolate on the finish.
