Couvent des Jacobins, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, France 2016 Mount Peak Winery But there is nothing blunt

But there is nothing blunt about them and there is ample mineral infusion and freshness

Pure chardonnay

with a fine mousse and excellent minerality

Palate of great elegance

The subtlety of its aromas are reminiscent of floral notes and candied fruits

Couvent des Jacobins, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, France 2016 Mount Peak Winery But there is nothing bluntThe Couvent des Jacobins has an attractive bouquet with blackberry, brown spices and a touch of game. Perhaps there is just a tiny bit of brettanomyces in this sample? The palate is medium bodied with grainy tannin, crisp acidity, a little pinched on the mid palate with a structured finish.
