Lots of toasty oak on the back end but this is in balance with the fruit that drives the palate

lavender and sweet spice give the 2016 striking inner perfume

structured Cristal layered with considerable fruit

elegantly fruit-driven Pomerol

sweet tannins to round out the finish

de Montille, Pommard Grands Epenots other_regions Lots of toasty oak on(33% stems). A perfumed, airy and elegant nose offers up notes of essence of red currant, dried flowers, anise and clove along with an abundance of warm earth. There is excellent purity to the delicious, intense and sleekly muscular flavors that are shaped by relatively fine grained tannins, all wrapped in a long and mouth coating finish that displays just the barest hint of rusticity. I very much like this generous yet refined effort. (91 93) 2021+
