Château Le Caillou 2019 – Pomerol

The nose is fruity, aromatic and offers a good definition, a very fine/finely tight grain as well as a small intensity. It reveals notes of wild/dense cassis, small crushed black fruits, small notes of grey pepper associated with fine touches of strawberry/crushed red berries, liquorice, dark chocolate as well as very fine hints of toasted, a subtle hint of fresh tobacco, an imperceptible hint of dry orange zests (in the background). The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a fine acidulous frame and freshness. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy blackberry, crushed small black fruits, small notes of raspberry/crushed red berries associated with touches of violet, lily as well as hints of liquorice, nutmeg, toasted and very fine hints of chocolate (in the background). An imperceptible hint of caramelized almond. Good length.
