Jan 19th, 2022It takes time to bring out real taste. 1st day , it’s difficult to find the difference to 2017, but 2nd day, clearly different, vintage taste. Much smooth. Gentle. Mushroom. A bit spicy.2009 @2400, Kping -, 210702-210717

Jul 2nd, 2021Lots of delicious tannin. Gorgeous color, red with a little ruby. Took a while to open up. Didn’t get to decant it, but it tasted it’s best on day three after opening.

Very good surprise for a wine I expected very little from. Earth, black currant, menthol... Very nice. Superbly balanced palate with a srong acid backbone, some meaty, salty touches, a nice grip and some lively tannins. Some oaky touches here and there too. Long lasting finish with some oak, black currant, and a salty meaty thing. Quite a well crafted pomerol for a very competitive price (around 20€).
