This small, 17-acre Pomerol vineyard is the only biodynamic one in the appellation. With this 2001, the Laval family has produced an intense, chocolaty Merlot (with 25% Cabernet Franc), full of smoky coffee, dark red fruits and plum flavors. Expect this wine to age over 5–10 years. Imported by Robert Chadderdon Selections.

91-93 Barrel sample. Sweet, plummy wine, its tannins coming from spiced wood as much as fruit. There is a dry core, but the fruit is so opulent and ripe.

92-94 Barrel sample. Spicy wood, ginger and nutmeg, balancing with solid textured black fruits. The wine is rich, a powerhouse of sweet tannins, finishing freshly with black currant juice

Finely balanced, this has plenty of weight, which shines with the fresh lemon, pear and sweet grapefruit flavors. There is some wood there, but just a hint to give texture. A big success from a fine white wine vintage, and worth aging for 3–4 years.

90—92 Barrel sample. Initially severe, the structure then opens out and gives a delicious tension between ripe fruit and that structure. This will age.

89-91 Barrel sample. With sweet caramel aromas, this is a jammy wine, all sweet fruits, richness and not much structure. A wine that shows warmth and ripe fruits.

A fine, complex wine that balances sweetness with fresh lemon and honey flavors on top of a core of dry botrytis and a tight structure. A wine for aging.

94-96 Barrel sample. A wine that opens slowly. Then the concentration and rich fruit come through. It gives a smooth texture over layers of toast, but never losing sight of freshness.

91-93 Barrel sample. Well structured, this has dry tannins over vivid black fruits. It shows acidity but also great juicy sweetness.
