This wine is composed of about 70% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. It was an exotic, spicy wine that had dark fruit and chocolate both on the nose and in the mouth. While it was big, it didn’t come across as heavy, which was a surprise to me. The finish was long and detailed. It is great to taste Pomerol that can be a pleasure as well as impressive!

Just past prime @ £125, enjoyable but not worth 💵 buy 09 & 10 today 😉 drink up 00 😁

🍷 Opaque ruby
