Denis Durantou explained the need for taking care not to over extract too much tannin in this vintage. One of the ways he accomplished this was by reducing the amount of pump overs during fermentation.
The rich, intense, plum liqueur, chocolate and black cherry palate combines freshness, silky textures and a sense of refined elegance.
Rich, concentrated, plush with freshness, the wine finishes with creamy chocolate covered dark berries, licorice and plum liqueur.
Fresh scents of violets, chocolate, black raspberry jam, licorice and truffle couple with lush textures on the palate.
This complex, spicy wine coats your palate with layers of pure, sweet, ripe plums. This is a hedonistic, sensuous style of Pomerol that blends intensity with pleasure and ripe fruit dipped in chocolate.
Deeply colored and filled with smoke, cassis, jam and licorice coated dark berry aromas.
If prices remain fair, this could be one of the top wines to seek out for a combination of quality and value in the Medoc from the 2010 Bordeaux vintage.
