Monday, May 11, 2015 - Appearance: Bright and clear, it has medium ruby color, with fading rims and legs.
Nose: Clean, with medium (+) intensity aromas of black fruit such as blackberry and plum, herbal notes of mint, pungent spice of anise and licorice, oak notes of vanilla, kernel notes of dark chocolate, sweet spice of nutmeg, maturity notes of tobacco. The wine is developing.
Palate: Dry with medium acidity, the wine has medium tannin of ripe and silky texture, with medium alcohol and medium body. It has medium (+) intensity flavors of black fruit such as blackberry and plum, oak notes of vanilla, pungent spice of licorice. The wine has a medium (+) finish.
Conclusion: Very good quality Pomerol with a good concentrated nose of good complexity, the wine has demonstrated elegance and at the same time a firm structure, with the Cabernet Franc characters particularly strong to my surprise. The palate is equally intense and the wine finishes with a fairly long finish. It is ready to drink now though can benefit from further ageing of another 4-6 years.
