Pichon Comtesse Reserve 2018

The nose of the 2018 Pichon Comtesse Reserve is fruity, mineral, well-balanced and offers elegance. It reveals notes of fleshy blackberry, fleshy strawberry and small notes of fleshy red berries associated with touches of minerality, discreet hints of flowers, cardamom as well as a very discreet hint of pepper and green curry. The palate is beautifully fruity, juicy, well-balanced and offers a good definition, gourmandize, a mineral frame as well as a fine acidulous sensation. On the palate this wine expresses notes of fleshy blackberry, juicy cassis and small notes of juicy/ripe raspberry associated with a touch of juicy red berries, flowers as well as discreet hints of tonka bean, tea and spices. There are an imperceptible hint of mild tobacco and coffee on the persistence. The finish and the persistence are very slight firm. Tannins are elegant.
