Château le Chatelet 2021 – Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé

The nose is fruity and reveals a fine creaminess, elegance, delicacy, nice definition, finesse in its creaminess and a fine airiness. There are notes of boysenberry, blueberry with a hint of fleshy/creamy strawberry combined with hints of blueberry, fine graphite, Bourbon vanilla and a delicate floral and sweet tobacco edge. The palate is mineral, racy and offers juiciness, acidity, good definition, tension, nice sapidity, salinity, energy and sincerity. On the palate this wine expresses juicy/pulpy blackberry, pulpy/acidic red berry and slightly blueberry notes with hints of lily, blueberry and fine chocolate, sweet blond tobacco and a hint of caramelisation. The tannins are smooth and elegant. Good length. Nice sapid and gourmet persistence. A fine hint of chocolate in the background.
