G d’Estournel 2022 – Médoc

The wine has a deep ruby color, with slight purple highlights. The nose is juicy, enveloping, very fruity and gourmand. We find concentrated notes of morello cherry, tangy red cherry, cassis, wild blackberry, wild strawberry and black plum, associated with a touch of cocoa, toasted and spicy nuances (toasted hazelnut, a touch of coffee and vanilla), as well as a mineral framework of graphite and graphite. A fine, juicy and airy nose. The palate is silky, but solid, with a mineral frame of graphite and a good coffee bitterness on the attack. It expresses the flavors of cassis, morello cherry, wild raspberry and wild strawberry, associated with notes of vanilla, toasted hazelnut, licorice and white pepper in the background. Tannins are chalky, fine and well structured. The finish is flavorful, persistent, and chocolatey, with notes of dried morello cherry and fresh cranberries, as well as a good bitterness. An elegant and airy wine, with a tangy and fresh fruitiness.
