Château Vieux Maillet 2017 – Pomerol

The nose is fresh and offers a fine concentration/power as well as a fine richness. It reveals notes of lily/cornflower, blackberry, wild raspberry, wild blueberry associated with small notes of rose, fine touches of sweet spices as well as a subtle hint of toasted and a very discreet/imperceptible hint of vanilla (in the background). The palate is fresh, mineral, fruity, fine, dynamic and offers a beautiful acid frame. On the palate this wine expresses notes of fresh/crunchy blackberry, crunchy strawberry and more slightly wild raspberry, crunchy blueberry associated with small/fine touches of wild fresh flowers and a discreet touch of sweet spices as well as a very discreet hint of mild tobacco and fresh almond. Tannins are fine and slightly dry. Beautiful freshness.
