Red and black plum, hint of tar and rose petal on the nose, maybe hinting at truffle in the future. Subdued plum and berry fruit, lighter concentration. A finessed style, needs a bit of time to show better. Well balanced and nice, I like this style, if not the greatest concentration or complexity.

Awkward and angular when first opened, but fruit and oak emerge with air and blend nicely. Better the 2nd day. Merlot 83%, Cabernet Franc 17%. A wine more of finesse than power. Like virtually all Pomerols, you're paying for the appellation, not necessarily the quality of the wine.

Hällde upp den för luftning ett par-tre timmar innan middag. Vid en provsipp var den väldigt ung och tanninstram, nästan knuten. Till maten blev det dock andra toner och en lite mjukare melodi. Den var liksom lagom rakt igenom registret, men stack heller inte ut som ett under av komplexitet. Merlot-dominerad. Gott hur som!
