Sunday, June 11, 2023 - Picked up this bottle from Total Wines, 1hr decant, drank half of the bottle over 2hrs period, giving the wine good enough time in the glass as well.
Color is medium red, as expected from primarily Merlot blend. Close to 8 years but still lots of color.
On the nose, I got mostly fruits, nice black fruits and hints of casis, nothing more (for now). I don't drink a lot of Pomerol(s) so take my score of 92 with a grain of salt.
On the palate, the wine is well balanced with grainy tannins but doesn't hurt the palate. I think if I give this wine 4 to 5 more years, these tannins will/may rich silkiness that I love.
To me finish is not as strong. I hoped for better for a 100$+ bottle.
I recommend trying this bottle again in 4 to 5 years. Enough there to keep me interested.
