Not the biggest fan of this one. At first blush with about 10 minutes open it tasted chalky almost. The tannins were over powering and the flavors were just swamped by that chalky taste. I was eating an incredible steak and it was distracting me from the flavor of the steak. Leaving it overnight and drinking at the next day the chalky flavor was mostly gone but the tannins remained. There are better every day wines out there.

Multi-dimensional #lalandedepomerol - layered perfume of mushrooms, leather, white pepper. Taste features dried berries, dry and savory character with smoked meat mid-palate. I’ve forgotten how good Pomerol and nearby Right Bank appellations can be.
