This started a bit almost a touch astringent but then it opened up and for some reason I found myself coming back to it through the night and it really opened up and became one of my favorites. Darker red fruits. A bit more leather/cigar. Drinks well. Will keep looking out for this.

The wine opened up pretty quickly to aromas and flavors of sweet dried cherry and plum, anise seed and baking spice with an undercurrent of damp hollow log. The wine still had some tangy acidity and good grip. It’s in a nice spot. Wanting for length. Not bad for a bottle rescued from an abandoned house!

Classic Pomerol. Beautiful and exactly what I was expecting. Nothing special but a well made Pomerol drinking well the 2nd night.
