L’Eminence de Cardinal-Villemaurine 2018 – Saint-Emilion Grand Cru

The nose is fruity and offers a certain power as well as a small franc side. It reveals notes of bright cassis, bright plum, small notes of small crushed black fruits associated with touches of fresh lily, fresh iris as well as hints of small red berries, discreet hints of spices and an imperceptible hint of black tea. The palate is fruity and offers juiciness, suavity, a small gourmandize as well as a fine straightness/tension and dynamism. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy cassis, pulpy/juicy plum, crushed/candied violet plum, small notes of fleshy blackberry associated with touches of crushed raspberry, violet, fresh lily as well as hints of chocolate, toasted and a subtle hint of cardamom. Tannins are finely chewy. A persistence on notes of cocoa, toasted almond and a discreet hint of liquorice/coffee.
