Château Couhins 2017 – Pessac-Léognan

The nose is fresh, fruity and offers a small dynamism, minerality as well as a fine juiciness. It reveals notes of cassis, fleshy wild berries and more slightly small touches of wild strawberry, fleshy blue berries associated with subtle/discreet hints of flowers, chocolate and spices/cardamom. The palate is fresh, fruity, juicy, mineral, racy, well-balanced, aery, racy and offers tension. On the palate this wine expresses notes of crushed cassis, crushed blackberry and fresh red berries associated with subtle hints of racy minerality, graphite, sweet spices as well as a very discreet hint of chocolate, flowers and liquorice. Tannins are fine, slightly firm and very slightly dry. Good length.
