Château Montfollet, Vieilles Vignes, Blaye Côtes de

Nice expressive aromatics on the nose, floral and darkly fruity. Smooth and supple, lively and fresh, bright and juicy. Lots of structure, not weight as such, but you feel the width in the mouth and is supported by well integrated tannins. Clean and crips, nice mineral bite on the finish with long length. I like the finesse here, feels well worked, nothing overdone. it's big boned, but keeps definition. Great for easy drinking with crystalline mineral grip on the tongue after a few minutes. A blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Malbec, aged in barrel for one year, HVE3.
