From a slightly sandier terroir located just beside Bellefont-Belcier and Tertre Roteboeuf, the 2017 Château De Candale offers a pretty, elegant and polished style as well as ultra-fine tannin and perfumed notes of strawberries, black raspberries, and exotic flowers. It’s beautifully balanced, moderately concentrated, and shines for its complexity and elegance.

Nez de framboises macérées qui donne au vin un profil gourmand. La bouche est souple, équilibrée et s’achève sur un tanin légèrement poudré.

The 2017 de Candale is plump, juicy and forward, all of which give it considerable near and medium term appeal. Delicate and quite pretty, the 2017 is very nicely done.

Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 Candale opens with a cedar and spice box-laced nose over a core of cassis, baked black plums and mulberries plus a waft of cigar box. Medium-bodied and firmly textured with ripe, grainy tannins, it gives a good fruit core and well-played freshness, finishing long.

A linear and racy St.-Emilion with a fine line of tannin and acidity that frame a medium body and flavors of orange and citrus rind. Refined and polished.
