Château Tronquoy-Lalande 2017 – Saint-Estèphe

The nose is fruity, elegant and offers freshness as well as a beauitful concentration. It reveals notes of cassis, wild berries and more slightly blackberry, liquorice associated with a fine touch of spices, oak, tea, touches of minerality as well as very discreet touches of flowers, incense/graphite. The palate is mineral, well-balanced, racy, very slightly tight and offers freshness, density, a fine unctuosity as well as a beautiful grain very slightly powdered. On the palate this wine expresses notes of cassis, ripe red berries and more slightly cherry associated with fine touches of cola, lily/fresh flowers, subtle touches of liquorice, mocha/tonka bean as well as discreet touches of toasted and caramelization. Tannins are fine and well-built. Good length.
