Domaine Roger Belland – Les Cras 2016 – Pommard

The nose is fruity and offers fleshy/fleshiness as well as a fine intensity. It reveals notes of blackberry, violet plum and small notes of small wild berries associated with fine hints of flowers as well as discreet hints of liquorice stick, chocolate, sweet spices and an imperceptible hint of vanilla (in the background). The palate is fruity, juicy, well-balanced, very finely tight, well-frame/well-built and offers a beautiful mineral frame, suavity as well as a very fine tension. On the palate this wine expresses notes of black cherry, crunchy red berries associated with fine hints of cornflower, violet, racy minerality as well as a very discreet hint of liquorice, toasted, varietal and an imperceptible hint of vanilla (in the background). The finish is finely tight.
