93 RP. "This limited-production, 100% Merlot cuvée [by Christian Moueix] is a beauty. Sweet, almost caramelized black cherry fruit and dark mountain berries intermixed with forest floor and a touch of subtle oak characterize this full-bodied, rich, concentrated, superb Pomerol that should hit its stride in 3-4 years and last for two decades. Unfortunately, the production is only about 1,500 cases." Wine Advocate #181, Feb 2009 |
