Château de Sales 2015

It is on the largest domaine of Pomerol - 48 hectares - that the Chateau de Sales vineyard produces wines faithful to the terroir expression. This wine is a 70% Merlot, 15% Cabernet-Sauvignon and 15% Cabernet-Franc. The vineyards grow on a gravelly-sandy soil with iron-dirt subsoil. This 2015 reveals a very beautiful ruby-tinted deep red colour. The 2015 Chateau de Sales carries a both complex and intense nose of subtle woody aromas, but especially red berry and spicy notes. This wine offers a good attack on the palate, as well as a harmonious balance associated with a good breadth, vinosity, roundness and flesh. The finish is long, marked by fine and elegant tannins, and enhanced by fruity aromas. The 2015 Chateau de Sales is a worth keeping great vintage.
