Château La Rivière 2015

Fronsac

-

The nose is fruity, racy and quite elegant. It reveals notes of cassis, wild blackberri­es and fresh redcurrant combined with fine touches of flowers, wild / fresh red fruits, racy minerality / flint, and subtle hints of gray peppers / spices. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a nice juiciness, a nice minerality, a nice roundness / fat, a good definition, gourmandis­e, a juicy frale, a beautiful matter and a good guideline. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of fleshy blackberry, fleshy strawberry and slight notes of fleshy red cherry with a touch of fresh redcurrant, Bourbon vanilla, carameliza­tion, oak as well as an impercepti­ble hint of mocha / spices (in the background). Tannins are well-built. Good length and beautiful persistenc­e (a hint of colas).
