Das Château
Im Herzen der Hochebene von Pomerol, am rechten Ufer des Bordeaux, verdankt das Château La Violette seinen Namen den charakteristischen Aromen, die das Bouquet seiner Weine verströmt.Château La Violette besitzt einen kleinen außergewöhnlichen Weinberg auf der Hochebene von Pomerol. Die Reben sind auf lehmig-kiesigem Boden gepflanzt.
Violets and lilacs were on full display in the opening notes of the aromatic profile before moving on to all of its spice, espresso, dark red pit fruits, wet earth and chocolate nuances. The best part of the experience however, is on the supple-textured palate with its waves of black and dark red fruits, creamy, lush tannins and long, rich, chocolate-tinted finish. With its tiny production, if you are a fan of La Violette, you will need to jump on it quickly, as very little wine was made. Drink from 2027-2050. Jeff Leve
The 2020 La Violette has a medium to deep garnet-purple color and fragrant notes of chocolate-covered cherries, plum preserves and wild blueberries, followed by nuances of rose oil, sandalwood and ground cloves. The medium to full-bodied palate gives layer upon layer of black and blue fruit preserves, framed by silky tannins and lovely freshness, finishing with fantastic length and incredibly perfumed. Robert Parkers Wine Advocate
Sehr duftig, Rose und Iris, auch Viola. Kirschkern, extrem pur. Viel Schmelz im Mund, mürbes, feines Tannin in hoher Menge, ganz homogen und dezent fließend, rund und mollig, extrem entspannt in der Anlage, mit guter aromatischer Länge, schokoladig zuletzt. Falstaff
