Ch. Clos de Bouard (0.75 L)

Property owned by Coralie de Boüard (From Ch. Angelus). It has a pretty bouquet with tightly wound minerally scents with touches of licorice filtering through with time in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin, crisp acidity, quite linear and taut in style with pencil lead and tobacco notes lending complexity towards the classically styled finish. I appreciate both the freshness and the cerebral nature of this 2016, one that will age with style. Drink date 2021-2040.
