DRUVSAMMANSÄTTNING 75% M, 17% CS, 8% CF 2010 TASTINGNOTE Den överlägset största framgången i modern historia för denna gendom (känns fånigt att prata om slott i Pomerol). Oöverträffad silkighet och anmärkningsvärt fyllig i munnen. En av appellationens verkliga stjärnor denna årgång. Yppig mörk körsbärsnäsa, rik, smidig, medelintensiv garvsyra, med en härlig mognad i frukten, en fin doft, och en köttig kropp. Varm, harmonisk, komplett, mycket komplex, och med utmärkt längd. Snygg och elegant, en ordentlig Pomerol igen!
