I was pretty skeptical buying $35 Pomerol, and now I wish I'd grabbed more. This hints at being great wine, although I found myself wishing it were just a little more refined. Good mix of earth (forest floor, black tea, maybe a little cedar) and dark fruit (cherry, cassis). Moderate body and acidity. Drinkable now, will try my next in a few years.

Smooth not too tannic and still with mint and dark berry flavours

Full bodied Pomerol. Dense black fruit with tobacco, mushrooms/forest floor. Cedar or cigar box. All with sumptuous tannins. I really enjoyed this one

Solid Pomerol. Earthy. No wow factor

Quite good Pomerol. Good structure with plums, red fruits. Forest floor, mushrooms and quite presence of oak. Soft and present tannins. Good QPR
