Château Jean Voisin 2016 – Saint-Emilion Grand Cru

The nose is fruity and offers a small concentration, a beautiful finesse of the grain, a fine intensity, elegance as well as complexity. It reveals notes of blackberry, ripe / crushed cassis and a touch of crushed strawberry associated with small touches of juicy wild berries, blueberry, flowers / violet as well as hints of Cuben pepper / spices, lilac and discreet hints of oak / liquorice. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, very discreetly tight, precise and offers juiciness, finesse, tension, a good guideline, an acidulous frame, a good definition, suavity as well as a fine and silky matter. On the palate this wine expresses notes of black fleshy / juicy and small notes of fleshy cassis associated with touches of raspberry, juicy berries, violet as well as hints of blueberry / plum, chocolate, cardamom, a discreet hint of flowers and an imperceptible hint of Cuben pepper (in the background). Tannins are fine, precise and structuring. Good and gourmande persistence. There are hints of chocolate / tonka bean, caramelized oak and fleshy fruits on the persistence.
