Double decanted for 5 hours before drinking. Excellent deep aromas of blackberry, black current, plum, cherry, cedar, liquorice, and some floral and earthy tones. Sophisticated and suave on the palate. Quite silky with just a hint of powdery tannins at the finish. Very good length and weight for the vintage. Drinking very well now, and having given this a good airing, I feel it’s drinking at it peak. A very classy Pomerol. There’s absolutely no rush with this, but at the same time, there’s probably no need to wait either.

Blackcurrant, plum, cedar and floral notes. There is purity to the fruit on the balanced palate, with lively acidity and some fine tannins on the finish. This is drinking well now and may improve in the future.

2004 is a weak vintage, however it always been the wine are in the best time to drink up now. Pronounced nose intensity with notes of black fruits, flora, spices, toast. Medium acidity and medium tannin. Drink up will not improve anymore.
