  A point for me. Just perfect. Like drinking chocolate honey. EVERYTHING - acidity, fruit, tannins - in perfect harmony. Wish I had more.

  From time to time I like to follow the development of this wine. Now, at the age of twelve, I admire the fresh fruit, the modest vanille and gentle wood in this wine, the concentrated midtaste with a gentle creaminess to show it is a Pomerol, and the pure and balanced aftertaste. The 2010 vintage has the quality to show the precision in all the element. In this wine everything is at the richt place and in in the right amount.

  Bouquet of ripe blackberries, smooth palate, ripe, chocolate with a tiny bit of freshness, leading to a spicy finish of medium length. Well made and great QPR.

  At this point this can compete with a lot of classified growths orders of magnitude more expensive. Smooth gentle monster of Pomerol here. And with only 10-11 years to reach its peak - a great deal all together
  
  PS several days later we opened the bottle and properly decanted it. At least 93 now moving to 94 in 3-4 years. Although fully ready now. Just decant. Great merlot.

  Very subtle wood, perfect vanilla, creamy merlot, dry, so the merlot keeps its elegance (decanted twice), juicy, structured in the 2010-style.
  In the aftertaste gives the citrus a very good backbone.
