Tasting Notes (Sommelier Profile)
- **Appearance:** Deep ruby-garnet color with a vivid robe.
- **Nose:** A sophisticated and complex bouquet, led by Merlot, offering intense aromas of ripe black fruits (plum, black cherry), floral notes of violet, and classic undertones of truffle, cocoa, and cedar from barrel aging.
- **Palate:** Medium-to-full bodied, the palate is smooth, fleshy, and highly polished. The tannins are fine-grained and supple, giving the wine a velvety texture and a long, fresh finish-a hallmark of great Pomerol.
Pairing & Serving Tips
This luxury red wine is best served between 63-65°F (17-18°C). We recommend decanting younger vintages for one hour to fully express the complexity of the bouquet. It is built to complement rich, savory main courses.
