Beautiful pomerol, 80% merlot and 20% cab franc. Decanted 60min and could have used 2 hours. Last glass definitely the best. Big nose with blueberries, black cherries and a bit of spice. Palate is filled with bright fruit backed by some firm but balanced tanins. Great spot, just starting to transition into the secondary world.

Slightly underwhelming compared to previous bottles. Perhaps an off bottle? Lots of blackberries, plums, truffle, nutmeg on the nose, soft attack on the palate but the wine feels light on its feet with a short finish. Decent but not flabbergasting at least for this bottle.

Deep red. Stewed red berries nose. Tannic but smooth. Big mouthfeel. Youthful but not bright or fresh. Lot of power. Long runway.

Dekantert. Vidunderlig fra første glass. Nese til å dø av, frukt fremheva av perfekte tanniner og syre. Dette er hva jeg er ute etter.
