Château Richelieu 2017 – Fronsac

The nose is fruity and slightly close. It reveals notes of crushed cassis, small ripe berries and strawberry combined with a touch of licorice, ripe raspberry, pepper, as well as an imperceptible hint of flowers, touches of vanilla, toasted touches and discreet touches of fresh almonds. The palate is fruity, mineral, well-balanced, well-built and offers fat as well as roundness. On the palate this wine expresses notes of blackberry, cassis and small notes of plum associated with small touches of ripe raspberry / fresh, minerality, licorice / zan and small toasted touches. Tannins are well-built.
