Tasting notes
Typical for this property, the 1995 has turned out to be a very good Pomerol with sweet, jammy flavors that border on overripeness. The wine displays a deep ruby color with a flamboyant nose of smoke and black fruits. There is noticeable glycerin on the palate, medium to full body, low acidity, and plenty of power, intensity, and richness in this big, fleshy, mouthfilling, savory, hedonistic Pomerol. Anticipated maturity: Now-2009.

Very good medium color. Bright, spicy black fruit nose, with an herbal/medicinal nuance. Lush and spicy in the mouth; soft, smooth and oaky. More breadth than real intensity, but pleasant and accessible.
