Tasting notes
A bit earthy, showing coffee bean and tobacco character, with fruit underneath. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a light finish. Lacks some concentration. A bit disappointing, but pleasant. Best after 2009. 2,900 cases made.James Suckling, Wine Spectator 2008

A sexy wine from La Croix de Gay, open-knit, round, juicy, with plenty of black cherry and blackcurrant fruit intermixed with some mocha and caramel, this fleshy, soft, fully mature Pomerol will continue to age well for another decade.| eRobertParker.com.June, 2015
