Très beau vin tout à fait classique et en finesse, même si plus généreux par rapport aux années antérieures. Nez toujours aussi spectatulaire des Lalande de Pomerol et en bouche, l'équilibre entre les tannins bien fondus et le fruit très présent est parfait. Délicieuse finale. Attendre davantage pour boire ce vin n'apportera rien de plus, bien au contraire; le fruit risque de disparaître rapidement dans ce cas-ci.

At first dry and lean, somewhat austere, it took a while to rid itself of an aggressive edge. After that, it was quite lovely, with the fruit a bit shy but finally coming out. Well balanced, food friendly wine. Has improved a great deal since its release.

Reddish purple in appearance. Nose of plum, cinnamon, currant, under a cloud of dust. Nise simple well extracted wine with a slightly creamy midpalate, mild tannin structure, and well balanced acidity. Cherry and currant fruit is somewhat muted. A nice wine. Would buy again. (B).
