Château LA HAYE Tinto Saint-Estèphe Cru Bourgeois 2018 - 150cl
The nose is elegant, fine and offers a fine grain, good depth and very good intensity.
It reveals notes of live blackberry, grootte and small notes of violet plum associated with touches of small fleshy/ripe red fruits, as well as notes of violet, Sichuan pepper, saffron and a very discreet touch of spices.
The palate is fruity and offers minerality, a little freshness, silkiness, juiciness, a fine gourmandize, smoothness and fine tension.
On the palate this wine expresses notes of bright griotte, bright violet plum and small notes of blueberry associated with touches of bright strawberry, small red berries, saffron, lilac, as well as fine notes of spicy minerality, zan, black tea and a hint of cardamom. and tonka bean.
Good length. The tannins are spicy. A persistence in chocolate notes and a fine touch of caramelization.
Can be drunk now or until 2034.
