Intuition de Fleur Cardinale 2021 – Bordeaux

The nose is fresh, elegant and reveals minerality and energy. There are notes of quenette, bright vine peach and, to a lesser extent, of fresh/sparkling white berries combined with fine touches of exotic fruit as well as hints of fresh rose petal, citrus, acacia, a discreet hint of honeysuckle and spice. The palate is fruity, fresh, mineral, balanced and shows some tension, energy, and an acidic spine. On the palate this wine expresses notes of fleshy/chunky/juicy vine peach, quenette and more slightly kumquat combined with touches of bright green apple, sweet lemon/pink grapefruit as well as discreet hints of exotic fruit, honeysuckle, a subtle hint of vanilla/fresh vanilla flowers, a discreet tannic and iodine/saline edge (in the background).
