Clos Marsalette 2020 – Pessac-Léognan

On the nose, fruity, fresh, elegant, offering a fine richness. Notes of pulpy peach, bright green apple and more slightly lychee associated with a hint of Quenette lime, lemon as well as discreet hints of yuzu, lemon blossom and a very discreet hint of exotic fruits. The palate is fruity, racy and offers juiciness, suavity, gourmandize, good definition, a nice tangy frame, a little salinity/iodine side, tension, a nice freshness and precision. On the palate it expresses juicy lemon, juicy/pulpy quenette and more lightly bright white peach notes combined with a touch of tangy green apple as well as toasted hazelnut and a subtle hint of verbena. Good length.
