...rich, bold and dramatic, with all of its customary intensity on display. Black cherry, blueberry jam, plum, lavender and exotic spice overtones crescendo as this dramatic, sweeping Pomerol shows off its grandiose personality. Ample and voluptuous, but with plenty of underlying structure, it possesses fabulous depth as well as pedigree.
...aromas of crushed raspberries, stones and flowers. Full-bodied, dense and concentrated with fruit, wet concrete and walnut skin.
...perfumed and ripe, giving delicious black fruits as well as a firmer structure.
...veering more towards red rather than black fruit, crushed strawberry and mulberry, tinged with clove and bay leaf....palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin and impressive fruit concentration....finishes with a sense of confidence and style.
Very dense, with a wall of ganache and loam holding the core of steeped fig, blackberry and black currant fruit in check for now...tannins are evident yet ripe...finish drips with dark earth notes.
...classic, balanced, and elegant, with little in the way of wow factor yet loads of charm. Ripe currants, black cherries, tobacco leaf, forest floor, and hints of incense all emerge from this medium-bodied, elegant, sweetly fruited, and silky Pomerol...
Scented and alluring. Some lovely fresh Cabernet Franc aromas and a silky texture. Very winning indeed in a medium register. Lots of refreshment...
