De Sales Pomerol Ginestet 2024

Tasting Notes

Lovely vibrant colour in the glass with pronounced aromas of blackcurrant and red cherries with some milk chocolate and violet scent s. Round and smooth, this has a good density of fruit and flesh on the palate with a really juicy core before a chalky sensation comes in on the finish. Hints of cinnamon and clove accent the finish with freshly picked mint. Lovely purity with a dollop of sweetness that is so appealing. Structured and balanced. A success in the vintage. Ageing 15% new, 85% second or third fill. A yield of 10hl/ha. Less than 50% grand vin production. Manual hand sorting. 14 days maceration. 3.70pH. Drinking window: 2029-2040.
