Velvet on the palate but felt the tannins never truly resolved as the wine was not linear in focus. Almost a bit briary. The finish was short and not too complex. All in a all, a nice bordeaux with dark fruit that still has some life left but I doubt it will improve. Would drink now and the next few years.

Short decant; but wonderful aromas of truffle, sandalwood,oak and ripe cherries. Dark color with some garnet hues. Medium bodied, elegant and very drinkable at this stage. I like this Estate and consider it one of the top in Pomerol. This 2007 version does seem to be at its peak and should be drunk now.

Sweet red berries and quite a lot of oak, perhaps even a bit too much in this vintage as the fruit doesn´t quite support it.
This is a pretty generous and soft wine ina style I quite like. But as the vintage conditions was difficult, it is what it is, a pretty good red with a modern feeling, although still very "bdx".

Starting towards maturity. Oak still prominent though. I’ll wait 3-5 years ’til the next bottle.
