  Purchased at the estate in the summer of 15 when travel was still a thing....
  
  Medium to medium plus ruby in appearance. Opaque in the middle with some light lightening at the rim .
  
  Fully mature nose of red fruit- cherry and plum , kirsch and little bit of vanilla and baking spice. Although fully mature, the nose is not tired in any way.
  
  Medium plus in body with plenty of structure and acidity at age 9 or so. Lots of red fruit and some savory notes on the palate with a medium plus finish.
  
  Overall not the most complex Pomerol , but a very well made wine that that is drinking great. No need to wait- so drink up!

  Sandy tannins, rich, mellow, balanced, deep dark plum. Super after 20 mins in the glass, but poor qpr.

  very prominent acidity delivering freshness to the wine, needs time, not the best QPR
