The 2019 Château Saint Georges has lots of classic Right Bank minerality as well as ripe red and black fruits, graphite, violet, and dried spice-like aromas and flavors. With plenty of fruit, medium to full body, light tannins, and a great finish, it has outstanding potential.
The 2019 St. Georges is a hearty, pleasantly rustic wine. Inky dark cherry, plum, licorice, spice, grilled herbs, sage and menthol, come together in a powerful, burly wine with grippy tannins.
Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2019 Saint-Georges is a little closed and broody to begin, soon unfurling to reveal notes of baked black cherries, mulberries and plum preserves with touches of Marmite toast, wild mushrooms and damp soil plus a hint of hoisin. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has compellingly crunchy black fruits with a finely grained texture and well-balanced freshness, finishing earthy.
