Chateau La Fleur Garderose, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, Bordeaux France, 2016

Deep in color with a beautiful freshness to the wines giving them lift. The fruit has a wonderful sense of purity. The tannins offer silk, velvet or both. The 2016 Saint Emilion wines are clearly ripe, but they are balanced, sensuous, complex and should age for decades.
