Pomerol panache (Bordeaux, actually tasted during en primeur week): Lovely aromatic elegance, but again we encounter somewhat raw tannins stressing power over grace. Compared to Latour à Pomerol however, tasted just before, this estate is more elegant and more seductive… so I give the benefit of the doubt to barrel aging to sort things out. 91-93

Sensuous fresh, sweet, round and supple, this wine feels like silk on your palate. The ripe, plum and cherry notes attention seeking notes in the end stick with you. The wine was made from a blend of 70% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. 92 - 94 Pts

Brief note
Huge potential
Rather round plummy cherry flavors
In a lovely package.
Hold, but so approachable now
