The Gombaude-Guillot, one of the few Bordeaux wines the Kermit Lynch works with, is a Pomerol that has the textbook satin-like tannin, a byproduct of the Merlot grape planted in these hallowed clay soils up on the Pomerol Plateau. Still plenty young, the fruit was plush but not too generous, showing juicy red fruits that buttressed and a subtle core of earth and minerality. Drink now or hang on for another 10 years easy.

Pomerol! Feeling rich with this richly flavored, juicy Bordeaux. The dark, ripe, juicy fruit is still the main show , with some nicely integrated spice and dusty tannins.
