Château de la Cour 2016 – Saint-Emilion Grand Cru

The nose offers a slight concentration. It reveals notes of crunchy blackberry, crunchy raspberry and small notes of fleshy berries associated with touches of vanilla, flowers as well as an imperceptible hint of Cuben pepper. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, very slightly tight and offers a slight freshness, a slight acidulous frame, a small density, a slight fat as well as a slight gourmandise. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy blackberry, juicy red berries and small notes of fleshy cassis associated with small / fine toasted touches, flowers, blond tobacco, vanilla as well as a very discreet hint of sweet spices. Tannins are fine and a bit mellow. Good length. There is an imperceptible hint of tonka bean on the persistence.
