Dark garnet in color, the wine is plush, round and polished. The black plums, licorice, smoke, tobacco and dark chocolate on the nose and palate get your attention. Richly textured with a long blast of black cherry, plum and oak on the palate and in the finish. Let the wine age for 6-7 years allowing enough time for the oak to integrate, as there is more than enough supple textured fruit to soak it all up. 93-95 Pts

Full bodied and concentrated with layers of sweet, ripe, fruit, this is not a wine for the oak averse. There is a lot of oak in the nose and mouth. With luck, much of the oak will dissipate in time.

This deeply colored wine has a dark black fruit, oak and licorice profile. This is a structured style of Pomero. While it’s filled with ripe berries, along with elegance, the jammy fruit display a hint of ABVic heat that could be off putting to some tasters. Janoueix thinks this is almost at the level of the 2005. I do not agree.
