Château Clos de Boüard 2024

Cherry and cassis on the nose, with grasses and floral notes; a juicy attack, fine-grained tannins, the acidity adds drive, carrying the delicate fruit into a pleasantly long finish. Very clean, with great drinkability.

The blend shows an intense purple-ruby colour, with a floral and spicy nose, including slight peppery notes. High-quality oak is evident, and the palate is tight, with fine-grained tannins. Nuances of red and black cherries and blueberries suggest good fruitiness and potential for ageing over the next decade.

Flowers, strawberry, and cherries define the character here in this soft, forward, early-drinking, fresh, red cherry-filled wine. The wine blends 85% Merlot, 11% Cabernet Franc, and 4% Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink from 2027-2038. 89-91 Pts
