94 Points

Tuesday, September 19, 2023 - Visits in Bordeaux; 9/18/2023-9/19/2023 (St Julien, Saint-Emilion, Pomerol): Though the nose is wound up a little bit, it still shows off its class as it fills the glass with baking spices, red cherries, blueberries, figs, some menthol, rose petals, chocolate, violets, and a bit of fresh herbs. There is a lot of depth and elegance here as it gets into the headier qualities of Merlot. The Medium/full bodied feel is refined and deep with medium acidity and silky, yet youthful, medium+ tannins. This is a drop dead gorgeous Pomerol that has many many years of great life ahead of it.
