Vintage 2015 | 85% merlot 15% cabernet franc Surprisingly open and with velvety tannins, good to drink now. Spicyness in smell, plums, cedar and tobacco, a very serious and rich smell. The concentration is better than what I expected, a truly fine example of a Petit Bordeaux with ambition from the family Bourotte-Figeac | Paired with Zoervleisj, a regional stewed beef speciality, baked potatoes and salads

Holding on, this is in a half-bottle 3/8 but is delicious. First with #coravin it was just okay, but decanted it sang. Delicious. #lalandedepomerol #pomerol

Very nice price/quality wine - retails in Europe below 20 Euro and is really good.

Balanced fruit and tannin with rich soft slice. With food, deep red cherry finish.

3.5. Excellent, medium-bodied Bordeaux with interesting fruits (strawberries?) and gentle tannins. Very nice nose and excellent lingering taste. On sale for $21.84, but regularly $29.99.
