Tasting note

Dense ruby/purple with fleshy black cherry and black currant fruit, some licorice and incense, this opulent, medium to full-bodied wine displays terrific purity, a subtle dosage of background oak, and earth. Maybe even a hint of truffle can be found in this complex, high-class Pomerol to drink over the next 20 years. This is a beauty and another great example of what heights Pomerol achieved in this vintage. 92 pts, Wine Advocate This product is part of the Bordeaux 2012 wine release and will be available for purchase in select stores on October 3, 2015. Please view the Bordeaux 2012 booklet for further information. “There’s lots of milk chocolate and light coffee on the nose, as well as bright plum and blackberry. Full-bodied, with fine, slightly chewy tannins and a long finish.” 90 pts, Wine Spectator Hold: 2013+
