The 2016 vintage brings a harmonious blend of concentration, balance, and complex aromas, combining the potential for long-term aging with the ability to enjoy it now, making it a wine that truly embodies the essence of Pomerol.

Tasting Comments

Tasting Notes
Deep garnet color.

The aroma that rises from the glass is a blend of ripe black cherry and cassis with vanilla, mocha, violet, and subtle hints of truffle and spice, giving it the depth that is characteristic of Pomerol.

In the mouth, the concentrated fruitiness and fine tannins blend together to create a moist texture.

Rich minerals and acidity provide structure, while the long finish offers nuances of dark chocolate and cigar box.

It can be enjoyed young, but has the potential to develop even greater complexity and elegance with age.

Pairing
Roasted beef fillet with truffle sauce, roasted duck breast with foie gras and potato gratin, and herb-crusted lamb rack with ratatouille
