Château Cantin 2018 – Saint-Emilion Grand Cru

The nose is fruity and offers juiciness as well as a certain gourmandize. It reveals notes of pulpy strawberry, pulpy blueberry, small notes of cassis associated with small touches of violet, redcurrant as well as very fine hints of fresh lily, a subtle hint of pepper and an imperceptible hint of fresh orange zests. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, slightly tight and offers a juicy/acidulous frame, tension, salinity as well as fat and a fine density. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy cassis, small ripe black berries, small notes of strawberry associated with small touches of small blue fruits, cornflower, lilac, zan as well as discreet hints of chocolate, grilled (in the background) and an imperceptible hint of caramelization.
