Pomerol, Libournais

Château La Conseillante

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 1989

1989 vintage. Sweet fill and cork. Opened but not decanted. Tasted after one hour and three hours. Burgundian color and body. Spice, minimal fudge and durty dirt to complete the holy trinity. Just passing time. Could seemingly glide along in this phase for another 5-spot. Good punch on the finish. 10.18.24. — 6 days ago

Château L'Evangile

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 1996

Had a dose of Brett that I found distracting in this wine (I don’t always find it so, but here it obscured too much). Would have loved to taste without that flaw. Even so, still very good. — 6 months ago

@David T This wine was in a very beautiful and settled place. It had complexity for days. We really enjoyed it. This decanter is our friend’s — it’s stunning! We’d love to get one ourselves. Cheers! 🥂

Stunning juice that is far more open over 2 years. Baked plums and dark, dark berry. I understand the Robert Parker and Dunnick 100 now! — 7 days ago

Pétrus

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 1949

Roses and dark brambles. Quite intense and very pure. Whiffs of tobacco and a real purity of fruit. Little tang of acidity on the finish with dried orange rind. Still profound — 16 days ago

Château Lassègue

Saint Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2017

Deep ruby. Aromas of blackberry, licorice, earthy and herbs. Fantastic structure to this Bordeaux. Black fruits that go on for a while with a tannic finish.

Middle of the Pacific Ocean.
