Dense, sweet fruit, offering as much elegance as richness. It is poised, with pure, elegant fruit flavors. As it develops, the fruit is going to become more and more delicious, while the dusty tannins will soften to reveal great opulence.

92-94 A gorgeously ripe wine, full of tropical fruit flavors. All this opulence is tempered with spice, grapefruit and lime flavors. A finely structured and textured wine.

Fruity and smoky, this wine succeeds on its charm, with soft tannins, acidity and superripe fruit. With its (for Pomerol) high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon, the wine certainly has structure, but maybe misses on richness.

The freshness of 2004 is the hallmark of this deliciously ripe but elegant wine. It is packed with juicy red berry fruits, giving richness but vibrant acidity.

85-87 Barrel sample. A powerfully dry wine, lacking charm but certainly compensating by a firm, hammer-like intensity. This could develop well, but it isn't very attractive at this stage.

Under the ownership of Patrick Bernard (whose family also owns Domaine de Chevalier in the Graves), this estate produces good, solid wines. Maybe this 2002 lacks great depth, but it has pleasant spice and wood flavors to go along with the ripe fruit. Drink soon.

A fresh, fruity wine, with only the merest tannins. It is bright, clean, the black currant fruits and clean outlines merging into a sweeter, jelly-like aftertaste.

84-86 Barrel sample. An over juicy wine, the fruit so ripe, soft, with candy shop flavors.

91-93 Barrel sample. While it has weight and concentration, the wine also has great freshness. It is a fine combination of dry tannins and fresh blackcurrant fruits.

is a classic. Vintage 2004 has given beautifully ripe Merlot, perfectly poised, but also showing the dryness and power. It is hugely intense, structured, bringing in blackberry flavors, fresh acidity and complex wood, perfumed and rich, concentrated. The aging potential? At least 20 years.
