Château Porte Chic 2022 – Pomerol

The nose is tangy and offers spicy notes (black pepper, licorice, cloves, vanilla), menthol, cut mint, floral (violet, dried cornflower) and slightly mineral (graphite). There is also a touch of roasting in the background (mild coffee) and fruity notes of blackberry, morello cherry, strawberry, black plum and blueberry. On the palate, the wine is silky, airy, with a fine texture of tannins and their well-built structure. Flavors are ripe, warm; we find notes of morello cherry, black plum, strawberry, wild blackberry and red cherry, associated with touches of cut mint, licorice, vanilla (more slightly), clove and violet. Beautiful acidity and persistence on the palate. The finish is slightly drying, but enveloped.
