France

St-Emilion

Medium

Cork

Expressive and aromatic nose, fresh, ripe and fragrant blackcurrants. Grippy on the palate, chewy tannins but more sleek and cushioned than overtly juicy but so appealing nonetheless, fine and powdery, more like crushed velvet in their texture. The fruit takes a bit of a backseat at this point, more in the background under the structure but providing a nice plumpness on the tongue. Mouthfiling with cool blue fruit flavours. This feels like good winemaking here, the texture is excellent giving just the right support and you don't have any sharp or piercing edges. New estate this year, 2.5ha, owned by the former winemaker at Larcis Ducasse. This is the limestone expression of the estate - Terre blanche with a separate Terre Brune Cuvée to come.
