Château Montlabert 2017 – Saint-Emilion Grand Cru

The nose is fruity and aromatic. It reveals notes of blackberry, violet, wild raspberry and blueberry associated with small touches of liquorice stick, chocolate, toasted as well as as a subtle hint of white pepper (in the background). The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers juiciness, a good definition, a mineral frame, a fine unctuosity, a fine tension, a certain delicacy as well as a good suavity. On the palate this wine expresses notes of crushed blackberry, crushed raspberry and more slightly smal crushed wild black fruits associated with small touches of dar chocolate/tonka bean as well as discreet touches of vanilla (in the background) and a very discreet hint of almond (in the background). Tannins are fine and well-built. Good length.
