94+ and still growing. This is a great and classic wine! Dark and dense, chocolate and cherries with great balance and structure. Love it now but this is also for the next decennia. 49% Merlot and 51% Cabernet Franc — 4 years ago

Damn. Not often I get something like this. Still felt somehow very familiar, reminded me of home and my grandfather. — 6 years ago

At the Pomerol Dinner we then had 3 vintages of Chateau Hosanna starting with the 1999. 70% Merlot 30% Cabernet Franc. Only 4.5 hectares with some famous neighbours - Lafleur to the north; Petrus to the east; La Fleur-Petrus to the west; and Vieux Chateau Certan to the south. This 1999 was the first vintage made under the Hosanna name. Earthy with a touch of wet nappy. On the palate plump and round with supple tannins. — 8 years ago

Yes yes yes. I know I’m like a kid with a cup of hit chocolate, but I just love sweet wines. Hints of citrus. But if acid balances the sweetness really well. Paired best with bold blue cheese than more gentle flavors. — 9 years ago

Really good wine, full of flavor and melting in your mouth! 😋 Maybe better for a meat dish than sweet Italian Nutella night! 😉 — 11 years ago

Subtle curve fruity to dry with medium acidity and alcohol levels, finishing with subtle oak tannins. Can only see it improve with time. — 11 years ago

The Guinaudeau family has started this wine few years ago. Young vines that came from Chateau Lafleur. As a matter of fact in 2018 its called “Les Perrerieres de Lafleur”. Great blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Dark rubi robe, dark berries nose, very polished tannins on a medium length medium body wine with good acidity and support to the fruit concentration. Hold for 4 to 5 years. One of the best new wines we have tried in a while. Highly recommended ! — 7 years ago

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€). — 7 years ago

Great balance here. Concentrated cheery, black currant and forest on the nose. Finish is quite short, but fun and playful. Definitely needs more cellar time, will check back in a couple of years. — 11 years ago

17.5/20 (93/100) Глубокий, красивый аромат, в котором доминируют спелые ягоды черники и чёрной смородины, дополненные нотами ментола, лакрицы и шоколада. Довольно тельное с высокой кислотностью и бархатистыми танинами. Сочное и комплексное. #dfwe2019 — 7 years ago

Well located situated between Lafleur and Petrus hence the name. A little bit of history - Pomerol was originally planted by the Romans but fell into disrepair and neglect until the 17th and 18th Century. The total area of Pomerol is only 800 hectares. This wine is plummy and very earthy and so enjoyable. My notes said “This is why one loves Pomerol “. — 8 years ago

Big fruit, but impressive acidity to carry the juice. Transparent and a very long finish. Balance is impressive so should give more pleasure in 5+ more years in the cellar. — 11 years ago
