Very attractive and vibrant purple berries, dark cherries, blueberries, fresh earth and violets on the nose... The palate delivers a sleeve of perfectly ripe dark-plum and blueberry flavors and makes a deep-set impression via succulent, lustrous tannins that roll smooth and deep. Fresh, earthy finish. Superb wine.
...notes of violets, black currants, toasty oak, and graphite...hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a seamless, sexy texture, no hard edges and fine, fine tannin.
...scents of potpourri, dried lavender, bouquet garni and cigar boxes over a core of warm plums, blueberry compote and cassis plus a waft of underbrush. Full-bodied, rich and opulent in the mouth and packed with black fruit and spice layers, it's framed with a firm yet velvety structure and oodles of freshness, finishing long.
...red berry fruit, leather, sage and black truffle scents that are very well defined. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, a fine bead of acidity, and gentle grip. A rounded finish belies that backbone. What a superb Pomerol - very convincing, modern in style, sleek and quite penetrating.
Fresh raspberry and red currant coulis notes stream through, tilting toward the racier side of the spectrum, picking up rooibos tea, blood orange, incense and mulled anise accents along the way. Singed vanilla details underscore the finish and add a flashy component.
Ripe black-cherry notes. Very sweet start. Verging on overripe notes with a hint of coconut oak.
