Château Haut-Lagrange, Pessac-Léognan, Bordeaux, 2015

Redcurrants and soft summer fruits but they haven't hit full ripeness. Fresh but an early drinker. 

A little softer and more evolved than the 2016, definitely open and ready to drink. Raspberry and black cherry, soft tannins alongside quite leathery edges now. I feel that extra degree of alcohol in texture and mouthfeel but also a tiny flash of heat that brings things to an abrupt finish.
