Score 93/100 · Drink 2021-2038, Neal Martin, Mar 2019

The 2009 La Gomerie is tightly wound on the nose, certainly more backwards than its peers, but clean and fresh with blackberry, raspberry coulis, sage and discrete ash/fireside hearth scents. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, very well pitched acidity, extremely harmonious with a subtle spiciness towards the Oriental-tinged finish that turns a bit green with time. This has tons of personality and it is very well crafted. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners’ 2009 Bordeaux tasting.

Tasted blind. Dark garnet. Pale rim. Heady and voluptuous nose. Very pretty wine. Fairly light-bodied for the vintage and appellation with a cool finish. It doesn’t have a very long life ahead of it, I fear, but all is in the right place. (JR)

Thick and sweet. Hint of cough syrup. Cassis. Lots there. Rather Australian. Reverberates. Very strong! Could be useful in a kir? (JR)

Score 93/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Jul 2012

Bright red-ruby. Inviting aromas of blackcurrant, mocha, cocoa powder, licorice, mint and flowers. Concentrated, fine-grained and vibrant, with highly perfumed flavors of dark berries, cocoa powder, mocha and potpourri spices. Finishes smooth and very long, with nicely integrated tannins. A lovely vintage for this all-merlot bottling.
