Lalande De Pomerol, Libournais

Château La Grave a Pomerol Trigant de Boisset

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

Medium ruby with quite narrow garnet rim . Quite rich and round on the nose , blackberry , cassis , touch of chocolate , coffee and dark cherry , red plum . Touch of warmth noticable . On the palate this is quite rich also with juicy dark fruits , blackberry , cassis , dark plum and a touch of grafite and cocoa , dry spice stained finish . Rounded sweet tannin and just balanced acidity . Only ok length , ends perhaps a little flat and overall could do with a little more freshness . Drinking well now , but will continue to show well over the next 5-10 years — 4 days ago

Nice - love magnums, especially for wines with modest origin. It creates surprises.

Mags also really slow down pace of ageing I think. This one felt fresher than one could expect from a ‘12 Lalande.

Château de Sales

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

Dark rubi robe, discrete nose of dark cherries, blackcurrant and a dollop of cedar. Medium bodied, mineral, fresh and balanced, with dark fruits nicely intertwined with fine tanins. This is excellent claret in a hot year, done in a classical way. Drink or hold. — 8 days ago

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2007

No formal notes . Quite dense ruby . Quite high toned floral character on the nose, very different from all others so far , this had to be the Petrus . More purple fruits , spicy . Spicy and rounded and quite exotic in character . On the palate this shows a juicy note and a rounder , richer riper tannin . Quite round on the finish , but ok generous finish . Floral and charming . This certainly showed exuberance and youthful , though it is also quite elegant and relatively fine boned in style. This can be drunk now and over the next 10 perhaps 15 years — 20 days ago

Château Garraud

Lalande de Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2014

A red blend from the right bank of Bordeaux, a value style (Lalande) out of pomerol. 84% Merlot and 16% Cabernet Franc offer medium structure, with some sourness of the red cherry and plums, some black coffee notes and dry leaves are part of showing its time already. Casual drinking will be the best to have it for. — 13 days ago
