Château Mazeyres 2021 – Pomerol

(organic) The wine has a ruby color of medium intensity. The nose expresses tension and density. It expresses notes of juicy morello cherry, wild strawberry, black plum, blackberry, a tangy touch of blueberry, as well as gourmand aromas of cherry in chocolate and raspberry coulis. There are also refreshing touches of blackcurrant bud, sweet tobacco and fresh mint, as well as an elegant touch of violet. The spicy and woody notes are discreet and integrated: we find in particular the aromas of liquorice (with a touch of star anise in the background), nutmeg and clove, associated with a sappy hint and a discreet minerality and a touch of toaast in the background. The palate is juicy, fruity, gourmand and at the same time precise and complex. It expresses the flavors of morello cherry, black plum, red cherry, wild strawberry, raspberry coulis and crushed blackcurrant, associated with herbaceous freshness (peppermint, fresh tobacco), spicy touches (liquorice, nutmeg, clove) and a fine hint of torrefaction (toast, coffee). The finish is persistent, juicy and enveloping, with gourmand fruit and a touch of dark chocolate with good bitterness. The tannins are soft and fine. Beautiful freshness and chiseled and salivating acidity on the finish.
