2015 Chateau Plince Pomerol

Blackberry, ? Plum with expansive palate and good length. Well balanced soft tannins.

Monday night wine! 3.8 stars for this Pomerol! 74% Merlot and 26% Cab Franc. One hour decanting which is to short. This red is definitely to young and should age for at least 5 years more. There is more potential inside! A deep ruby red with many legs. On the nose medium+ intense aromas of cassis, blackberries, morello cherries, herbs, spices, oak, slightly coconut, toast and forest floor. The red has a medium and juicy acidity, medium+ and fine-grained tannins, still young but on a good way.

Almost a Pinot at the aroma, with heavy and delicious dark fruit. Lots of smooth jammy blackberry and hints of vanilla. Tannic structure could be better but a great wine nonetheless.
