Louison & Léopoldine par Clos Louie 2022 – Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux

The nose offers maturity, concentration and beautiful notes of juicy fruits (griotte, blackcurrant, red currant, strawberry, raspberry), accompanied by touches of menthol, licorice, white pepper, violet, rose and a very slight mineral note. On the palate, the wine expresses concentrated flavors of blackcurrant, blueberry, morello cherry, strawberry and red cherry, complemented by a hint of spice (licorice, white pepper), herbs (dried mint) and flowers (violet). The tannins have a fine texture and good hold, with a certain astringency on the finish. The finish is tangy, medium persistent, with a high and salivating acidity (probably, due to the ongoing malolactic fermentation), but with fruity substance on the palate and good concentration. Good potential.
