Château du Gazin 2018 – Canon-Fronsac

The nose offers a small power, concentration, a slightly tight grain as well as a fine flowery side. It reveals notes of fresh cassis, fresh cornflower, small notes of fresh lily associated with fine touches of small ripe/fresh red fruits (cherry, raspberry) as well as hints of rose, a discreet hint of fresh spices and an imperceptible hint of pepper (in the background). The palate is fruity, fresh, racy, well-balanced and offers an acidulous frame, juiciness, minerality as well as a small tension and a small concentration. On the palate this wine expresses notes of fresh raspberry, fresh cassis, small notes of violet/fresh rose associated with touches of small fresh red berries as well as fine hints of tonka bean, a subtle sappy hint and cocoa bitterness. Good length.
