Domaine de la Solitude 2018 – Pessac-Léognan

The nose is fruity, gourmand, fine racy and offers a fine intensity. It reveals notes of ripe/fresh lemon, fresh zests of mandarine and small notes of racy minerality associated with very fine hints of crunchy white fruits. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers peps, suavity, gourmandize, a mineral frame, tension, precision, a fine straightness as well as a small richness. On the palate this wine expresses notes of ripe lemon, ripe mandarine and small notes of juicy kumquat associated with touches of crushed brugnon, litchee as well as a subtle hint of quenette and apple. Good length. A very fine chew and very discreet hints of vanilla (in the background) on the finish.
