Friday, January 27, 2023 - Just beautiful. Mid glossy and translucent ruby. Looks like a very good Burgundian wine. Immediately open from the first pour. Plum, delicate black cherry lily, touch of tobacco and forest floor. Also that milk chocolate and leather touch that you get with mature wine at its apogee. Everything can be distinguished yet everything is in harmony. Just glorious on the nose. Equally satisfying on the palate. Mid-weigh but still so much substance and flavour. No noticeable tannins but still fresh and uplifting, citrus zestyness and balance. Won’t get any better than this right now. A tribute to great terroir, great Pomerol and a world without extreme temperatures and climate events. 12.2% alcohol on the label so really drinking a time capsule of a wine. Fabulous and ethereal.
