Petit Verdot by Belle-Vue 2017 – Bordeaux

The nose is fruity and slightly firm. It reveals notes of fleshy cassis and fleshy blackberry associated with fine touches of flowers (violet, cornflower…), fleshy black fruits as well as discreet hints of fleshy redcurrant (in the background) and discreet hints of racy minerality. The palate is fleshy, well-balanced, net/precise and offers fleshiness, a fine unctuosity, a fine tension, a small straightness, richness as well as fleshiness. On the palate this wine expresses notes of fleshy blackberry, fleshy cassis and more slightly small fleshy red fruits, liquorice as well as discreet hints of flowers and an imperceptible hint of chocolate (in the background). Tannins are slightly dry.
