Château Chantegrive Cuvée Caroline

Cask sample. Very pale. Quite a bit of oak on the nose. Broad, sweet with more than a hint of spice. I'd like a bit more definition and acidity but it certainly has density. Not for long keeping, though there's a bit of chew on the end.

Mango, apple and creamy aromas with some honey and vanilla undertones. Full-bodied with a creamy texture and lovely depth and richness. Seems more like a top Pessac-Leognan in nature. 50% semillon, 45% sauvignon blanc and 5% sauvignon gris. Drink or hold.
