During a MOT walkabout tasting. Wonderful wine here, a big step ahead of the Belair-Monange. Complex nose of dark fruit and forest floor, silky tannins. Grand. 96+

Closed nose but already smooth red plum, chocolate covered cherry, and cinammon palate and an epic 20-30 second finish. However, by the third glass the wine closed. Wait a few more years for this puppy.

Painfully young, but an amazing vintage. Soars from the glass with beautiful floral notes, dark cherries, black olives and hints of chocolate. Well integrated and powerful tannins hem in laser focused fruit with exceptional layering and serious grainy savory character. Super firm and chiseled, this is powerfully structured and built to last, but ripe enough to bring some pleasure now. Finish is 30-45 seconds of enjoyment. Fantastic effort.

Beautiful wine. Lifted fruit, soaring, energetic. Still coiled but enjoyable at this young age.

This is everything you'd expect from a great Pomerol in 2016. Clearly some money in the winemaking. Polished and drinking well already, though clearly upside.
