Château BALESTARD LA TONNELLE 2021 Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé

The nose will benefit from being decanted and offers a certain complexity, a slight power, and a racy side. There are notes of crushed blackberry, small ripe black fruits and slight notes of infusion associated with touches of toast, sweet spices, and a hint of camphor. The palate is fruity and offers precision, a tangy structure, energy, a good definition, tension, and a certain richness in delicacy. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy cherry, pulpy blackcurrant and small notes of juicy/pulpy blackberry associated with touches of violet, small blue fruits as well as hints of blond tobacco and toasted/vanilla. Good length.
