An evolved medium ruby color offers cranberry, dried herb, cherry, and subtle spicy oak aromas. Medium-bodied and supple-textured, the wine exhibits a certain sexiness, but little depth or density. This pretty, elegant, precocious Pomerol reveals some fat.
A bit lean and disappointing, but some good berry, tobacco character. Medium- to light-bodied, with firm tannins, short finish.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 15/20 points.
