Château La Picherie 2016 – Montagne Saint-Emilion

The nose is fruity, aromatic, quite gourmand and slightly powerful. It reveals notes of blackberry, sour cherry and a hint of blueberry associated with a hint of violet/lily as well as a discreet hint of crushed strawberry and a discreet caramelization/toasted hint. The palate is fruity, fine, juicy, well-balanced and offers a beautiful fat, softness, harmony as well as a slight minerality. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of boysenberry, sour cherry and a hint of blueberry associated with a discreet hint of strawberry, caramelization, toasted hint as well as a very discreet hint of blond tobacco and hazelnut. Tannins are well-built. Good length. The persistence is slightly gourmande.
