Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A wine that is dominated by big, dense tannins. The black currant fruits come through with a stalky character. As it opens in the mouth, the wine shows some richness, along with its tannins, a hint of wood giving a smooth, elegant edge to the finish. It does need aging—four to five years.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Paloumey is in the southern Médoc, close to Margaux. This brings out a perfumed character that sits well with the fresh black currant fruit and gentle tannins. There is a great juicy quality that develops as the wine opens.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Good firm tannins, with ripe blackberry jam flavors, are followed by some spice from wood. This is a well-structured wine, its elements in place. The dry edge is finally dominant, and it probably needs 2–3 years aging.
