Tasting Notes (Classic Vintage)

• Colour: A dark, concentrated crimson.
• Nose: Highly complex, immediately presenting ripe dark berries (mulberry, black cherry), layered with notes of earth, exotic spice, and the signature Pomerol scent of truffle and violet.
• Palate: Full-bodied yet beautifully refined. The texture is pure silk, the tannins are ultra-fine, and the core of black fruit is intense and focused. The lengthy, polished finish confirms its status as a wine of exceptional breeding.

Serving Suggestions

Treat this wine with the respect it deserves, pairing it with classic British game or premium red meats.

• Serving Temperature: 16°C – 18°C.
• Cellar Advice: This wine has immense cellar potential. For early enjoyment, decant carefully to allow the structure to soften and the tertiary aromas to emerge.
