Camille Giroud – 2018 Les Longeroies – Marsannay

The nose is fruity and offers a certain aromatic power and a well-mastered concentration. It reveals notes of crushed blackberry, crushed strawberry and small notes of crushed small blue fruits associated with hints of cinnamon, nutmeg, fine hints of tonka beans and very slight hints of vanilla bourbon. The palate is fruity, racy and offers an acidulous frame, juiciness, freshness, a fine tension, a small fat, a fine creaminess, tension and a certain aromatic purity. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy / juicy cassis, cherry cream and small notes of pulpy / fresh raspberry associated with touches of violet, rose as well as hints of vanilla, chocolate, toasted almond and a subtle hint of hazelnut. Suavity and gourmandize on the finish / persistence. Tannins are elegant and very finely mellow.
