Château L’Acanthe de Dudon 2014

Côtes de Bordeaux

-

The nose is aromatic, gourmand and offers a fine elegance. It reveals notes of crushed blackberry, blueberry and slight notes of crème de cassis associated with touches of ripe red fruit, touches of vanilla/wood, a subtle hint of chocolate and a very discreet hint of Sichuan pepper (in the background). The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a fine mineral frame (racy minerality), acidity, a fine richness, freshness as well as a fine gourmandis­e. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of crushed

blackberry, crème de cassis and slight notes of blueberry combined with a hint of black cherry, juicy red fruits, fine touches of caramelize­d wood, vanilla as well as a very discreet hint of cardamon and chocolate. Good length.

Score : 15.5+
