  Beautiful, sesual tearing and blood-hued color. This is what a Pomerol should look like. Heady perfume of roses and strawberry cake. The taste is surprisingly astringent with almost a Pinot Noir character and either we are drinking this too young or something in the blend with Cabernet Franc is driving the wine in a certain direction. Drink now or possibly hold for 5 more years for the character to smooth enn out more.
