2014 Chateau Petit Village

France / Bordeaux / Pomerol Rouge
    
Right bank Merlot-based wine: Château Petit-Village is located on the highest part of the magnificent Pomerol plateau, on deep gravel and clay soils in the heart of the appellation. The vineyard in a single plot is shaped like a triangle and well situated to produce high quality wines typical of this exceptional terroir.
 
VertdeVin 93/100: "The nose is elegant and fruity. It reveals notes of blackcurrant and violet associated with slight notes of blackberries, red fruits as well as small touches of spices. The palate is fresh, mineral and offers a nice tension. On the palate this wine expresses notes of blackberry, plum and red fruit combined with a few notes of sweet spices and a hint of saline minerality. Tannins are fine, elegant, and well-integrated. The finish is suave. Good length".
