Château de Valois L'Eclat de Valentin (Pomerol)
With strong notes of espresso, black coffee, dark chocolate, smoke and deep red fruits, the wine is lively, round, and vibrant, on the palate, with a bit too much oak in the finish. If the oak better integrates, this will be a better wine. Let it age a bit to allow the wood to better integrate. The wine is a blend of 65% Merlot, with 35% Cabernet Franc.
