Château Labégorce 2023 – Margaux

The nose is beautifully led, gourmand , elegant, racy, with a nice textured side. It expresses notes of creamy-fresh blackberry, bright strawberry and small notes of violet, associated with touches of iodine, racy gravel, as well as fine hints of smoke and a discreet hint of sweet blond tobacco. The palate is nicely juicy, fruity and offers minerality, a fresh/acidulous frame, accuracy. It expresses notes of juicy/pulpy cherry, small roasted-juicy fruits and small notes of fresh raspberry, associated with touches of racy minerality/racy gravel, fine hints of fresh blueberry and fresh liquorice stick in the background. The tannins are sapid and supple, mellow, fresh, with a touch of hazelnut.
