Winery - Château La Grave à Pomerol

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
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.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is a seductive style of Pomerol. It may not have great weight, but what it does have is rich, juicy berry fruit flavors, an open structure and tannins just holding all this ripeness together.

89—91 Barrel sample. This is ripe, the tannins a whisper behind the spice and fresh, juicy fruits. Great ripe, fruity Merlot.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A chewy wine, which loses something with the somewhat stewed character of the fruit. It is dark, dense and dry, with structure, but the fruit appears almost too ripe.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Relatively light, this is fresh, with juicy red plum flavors topped by acidity. The tannins float over the fruit, leaving softness with only light tannins but a good fresh aftertaste.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
89-91 Barrel sample. The fruit here is restrained, almost austere, while the tannins are dark and dry. Only finally does some juiciness appear. A wine that will need aging.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Firm and densely tannic, with a solid structure, this is a weighty wine, with its dark berry fruits giving extra power. The acidity does lighten it but the final effect is of a concentrated, jammy wine.
