Smoke, espresso, caramel and red fruits start off in the right place, making this a successful debut vintage. But the soft red fruits are overwhelmed by the oak in the end note. Still, this is a wine to watch as the wine making team is very talented.

The debut vintage of this new Pomerol estate was produced from 100% Merlot, whole berry fermented fruit in barrel. The vineyard is a small .5 hectare parcel on clay terroir, located in front of Chateau Clinet. Coffee, licorice, truffle and black cherry notes create the perfume. The wine is plush, opulent and silky, with a lot of oak in the chocolate, plummy finish. 89-91 Pts
