Thursday, March 31, 2022 - In line with note from a year ago, this is in its drinking window but is very untypical of a classic Pomerol. The nose is packed with ripe fruit, but the palate is angular and austere while perfectly balanced dominated with bell pepper, (i would interested to find out if they upped the Cabernet Franc in this vintage,).The finish seems to becoming more challenging as the early fruit fades and is over tannic but once again well balanced. This held such promise on release but seems to keep going downhill with each tasting. Perhaps it is another dumb phase which time will address. I can only hope as I have over 2 cases of it.
