Well past its prime, tart, lean and with a distinctive olive and herb character to the overly crisp, peppery cranberry and strawberry on the nose and palate.
Good nose with cassis, raspberries, plum and a touch of sloan. Nice mix between dark and light notes. A touch of cigarbox and leather. On the palate well balanced with sweet fruit, medium acidity and tannin, some iron and earth. Medium lenght. Good, mature, quite generous Bordeaux.

From a magnum, tasted over five days. Pure Pomerol, plum, clay, and herbs throughout. It came off as a 90 point wine since its inception. What it lacked in substance and power it made up for with finesse and charm. Delicious! Marginal QPR.

A beautiful, mature Pomerol with leather and spice nose, silky texture, roundness length.
