  Double decanted in AM. I fear this got too much air, as the nose was quite mute at dinner. Perhaps going through a dumb phase?

  Kort dekant. Første glass himmelsk, andre glass meget pent, deretter mer og flere uvennlige tanniner. Pumpa og kjøleskap. Dag 2 er vi tilbake til start. Diskret men herlig pomerol. Opplevelsen dag 1 gjør nok at jeg venter et par år med neste. Men gedigent potensiale.

  Vieux Chateau Certan 2009.
  Helt vidunderlig på duft med mørke bær, lær og svake florale toner - stor intensitet.
  Utsøkt fatbruk.
  Ungt, likevel svært tiltalende.
  Smooth med bøttevis med frukt, pen struktur og friskhet.
  Helt fabelaktig tekstur.
  Ingen skarpe kanter.
  Nytes stort nå og tar sikkert 50 år til på strak arm.
  Holder intensiteten fra start til slutt.
  Rent og elegant til tross for den massive frukten.
  Meget lang med bestemte helt fine tanniner.
  En vidunderlig vakker Pomerol. 95-96p

  Four hour decant, my first from a case of 12, wow, plush silky mouth feel, intense fruit that has retained a fresh profile. Spice and herbs shine through the fruit, yet this wine has more to show with time in the cellar.

  Smooth taste, well balanced. Well preserved wine that can still age further. A little too soft for me perdonally.
