Chateau Citran 2021: Characteristics and tasting tips
The tasting
Color
A beautiful ruby color with purple highlights.
Nose
The nose opens with refreshing fruity notes (red fruit, blackcurrant). The bouquet becomes more complex with aeration, with redcurrant, cherry and blackcurrant fragrances harmoniously blend with vanilla and spicy notes.
Palate
A fresh attack gives way to a supple, ample and fruity palate. The finish is persistent and seductive with its toasted notes.
