July 13, 2019 - Out of curiosity, purchased and tasted one bottle.
- Colour : some evolution, red transparent, slight watery at edge
- Nose : mint, laurel, cherry, charred fruits, fine woody hint, herbal, after swirling quite a lot of red fruit, some "stank"
- Taste : quite light ( too light ), red fruit, some cherry, not impressed
- Finish : fine ( less robust as hoped ), lingers for the odd second, juicy though
Strange - I've had Pomerol 09 before and those bottles blew me of my socks - this one didn't.
Had one given me this bottle in blind tasting, I would have guessed odd year St. Emilion Grand Cru.
Nice experience to have tasted, but won't buy again. Drink now, won't improve ( imho ).
