MEDIUM-FULL BODIED, BLACK FRUIT, FOREST FLOOR, SPICE, NEUTRAL OAK
Sweet black fruit on the nose with a touch of forest floor and spice. Chalky, moderate tannins provide great structure, with perhaps a hint of green on the finish. Does very well with decanting 30 minutes prior.

It's hard to beat the location of this estate - across the road from Chateau Petrus. A deeply intense and plush Pomerol with immaculately ripe black currant and plum fruit. Wonderfully rich and expressive, and yet young, poised and restrained.
