Château Les Roches de Ferrand 2017 – Fronsac

The nose is gourmand, fruity, elegant and slightly flowery. It reveals notes of strawberry, juicy cassis and small notes of violet associated with a touch of juicy blueberry, a fine touch of lily, very fine hints of sweet spices as well as a discreet hint of Cuben pepper and vanilla. The palate is fruity, juicy, well-balanced, elegant and offers a mineral/juicy frame, a good definition as well as a beautiful fleshy/juicy fruit. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy cassis, juicy strawberry and small notes of juicy blueberry associated with very fine hints of toasted, vanilla as well as a subtle hint of caramelization (in the background). Tannins are elegant. Good length.
