Château Hosanna 2020 – Pomerol

On the nose it is fresh, elegant, racy it offers a lovely delicacy in its richness, an airy character, harmony and a fine grain and discreetly tight . It reveals the notes of pulpy wild blackberry, bright/fleshy strawberry and small fleshy blue currants associated with hints of cherries, blackberry/sour cherry, tonka beans, lilac as well as hints of nutmeg and a subtle almost saline edge. On the mouth it is fruity, classic in its noble sense and offers juiciness, freshness, deliciousness, a nice tannic framework structuring but delicate, an airy character in the approach, a discreet compact side, a nice expression of slight bitterness, a nice structure/definition, creaminess, precision. The wine express  notes of bright blackberry, pulpy/sparkling cassis and more lightly blueberry associated with touches of cornflower, bourbon vanilla as well as hints of sweet spice cardamom, bergamot and a subtle hint of sweet blond tobacco. The tannins are precise and finely mellow. Good length. A very discreet almost saline edge on the finish/persistence.
