Château de Sales
Héritiers de Lambert Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend



Pyrazines and wet spiced red fruit jump out of the glass. Acid-laced baked cinnamon spiced red delicious apple skins plus roasted poblano peppers. Vibrancy and youth even in 8 years age. Pair with salty cubes of hard cheese and Varzi Salami to enhance the baking spice and fruit quality.

Decent black fruit, classically structured. Unexciting but all present and correct

Good value. Dark fruit and spice on the nose. Approachable on opening with plum, dark cherries, blackberries, undergrowth and a touch of graphite. Pleasant mouthwatering acidity at the front followed by moderate lingering tannins. Not a lot of layers but overall very good.
