The elegance and finesse of the wine is further supported by a complex register of lush fresh berries and brambly like flavours, coffee beans, mocha and subtle soft grilled new oak notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the palate it displays a luscious and concentrated fine fruit attack and a succulent crunchy florality including waves of dark plums and chocolate that spreads with generous exaggeration right across the mouth with an impressive intensity of character leading to a sleek graphite like finish. It is a deliciously confident and opulent wine of classic structure but with a touch of mystique that promises well for the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall, the vintage has produced a very fine and concentrated wine that will continue to develop for many years to come and that will benefit hugely from careful cellaring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrink 2020 to 2035.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Clos Cantenac","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53145376620861,"sku":null,"price":130.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.smallscellar.com\/products\/clos-cantenac-saint-emilion-grand-cru-2016","provider":"Smalls Cellar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
