Clos de La Vieille Eglise 2018 – Pomerol

The nose offers a small concentration, a fine power as well as freshness. It reveals notes of pulpy blackberry, violet and small notes of ripe wild strawberry associated with touches of lily, small ripe blue berries as well as hints of saffron, sweet spices and a subtle hint of vanilla. The palate is fruity, fresh, mineral, well-balanced and offers suavity, a good definition, a small aerial side in the approach, juiciness, a fine acidulous frame, a certain tension, a fine straightness as well as a fine grain. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy raspberry, blackberry and small notes of redcurrant associated with touches of blueberry, lilac, zan, discreet hints of fresh mild tobacco, a subtle hint of saffron, tea and a discreet hint of vanilla. Good length. Tannins are well-built.
