Château la Commanderie 2023 – Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, Grand Cru Classé

The nose is fruity, fresh and offers a certain concentration as well as a very fine stretched side. A black fruit, dense and fresh. There are notes of violet, pulpy wild blackcurrant and small notes of roasted-juicy small fruits associated with fine touches of infusion, lily as well as a very discreet hint of liquorice. The palate is fruity, nicely juicy, balanced, very discreetly tight and offers fat, a certain roundness, good freshness, depth as well as a textured side. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy blackberry, fleshy/juicy blackcurrant and small notes of roasted-juicy small red fruits associated with a touch of crushed blue plum, hints of liquorice stick, cornflower as well as fine hints of infusion, spices, fresh pepper and very fine iodized hints (in the background). The tannins are precise, racy and finely mellow. Good length.
