Fragrant aromas of minerals and stones evoke the terroir of this Pomerol. Fully integrated on the palate with sweet fruit, perfect acids and a depth of flavor that keeps going and going. The long finish has some gravelly tannins but they are unobtrusive.

A wine with delicate, yet ripe fruit character such as blueberries and vanilla. Full and very silky with fine tannins and a delicious finish. Best in 2015.

Wow, did I underrate this wine from cask. I thought it was outstanding, but this wine is one of the superstars of the vintage. An extraordinarily provocative, exotic nose of a florist shop intermixed with raspberry and blueberry liqueur soars from the glass of this very aromatic/fragrant wine. Dense purple in color, with silky tannins, a full-bodied mouthfeel, great nobility and palate penetration, this is a sensational, compelling Pomerol to drink over the next 20-25 years.

This is very enticing, with a creamy mocha edge framing the dark plum, anise and boysenberry fruit core. Long and plush through the finish, with the toast melding nicely. Best from 2013 through 2025. 250 cases made. -JM
