The blackberries and blueberries, ash and cedar are prevalent on the nose, flowing through to a medium body with a beautiful center palate and curated tannins that run the length of the wine. The texture and mouthfeel are exceptional as well as the freshness and focus at the end. Very balanced. Drink after 2029 and beyond.
There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act – the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.
France, often regarded as the heart of the wine world, boasts a rich history, diverse terroirs, and a captivating variety of grape varietals. From the renowned vineyards of Bordeaux to the picturesque landscapes of Burgundy, France offers a wine lover’s dream journey. Whether you’re new to the world of wine or a seasoned enthusiast looking […]
Bordeaux: The Pinnacle of Terroir Expression In the illustrious realm of wine, Bordeaux stands as a beacon of excellence, where history, tradition, and terroir converge to create some of the world’s most iconic wines.

Pomerol, a distinguished appellation on Bordeaux's Right Bank, stands as a vinous jewel celebrated for its exceptional Merlot-dominant red wines. What makes Pomerol unique is its relatively small size, allowing for an intimate focus on individual vineyards and an emphasis on artisanal winemaking. Unlike many Bordeaux regions, Pomerol does not have a formal classification system, placing the spotlight on each estate's intrinsic quality and distinct terroir.
Merlot thrives in Pomerol's clay-rich soils, crafting wines of opulence, velvety texture, and alluring plum and black cherry notes. Iconic châteaux like Pétrus and Le Pin showcase the pinnacle of Pomerol's winemaking prowess. The absence of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blends further accentuates the appellation's uniqueness. Pomerol wines are revered for their approachability in youth and the ability to evolve gracefully over time, exemplifying the timeless elegance and allure of this exceptional Bordeaux appellation.

This is a bit exotic, with a flash of black truffle amid its mix of violet, ink, blackberry compote and warmed plum sauce notes. A long spine of cast iron gives this definition and serious length, with tobacco, chestnut and anise hints filtering through for added range. Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2026 through 2040. From France.

The 2022 Château Petit-Village is 70% Merlot, 22% Cabernet Franc, and 8% Cabernet Sauvignon, offering red fruits, spice, and graphite alongside beautifully integrated oak. Medium to full-bodied, it has elegant floral notes, seamless purity, and ultra-fine tannins. Not massive, but wonderfully refined, it shares a stylistic similarity with Conseillante but leans more into red fruits. Aged for 15 months in 45% new oak barrels, this will drink well for 30+ years.

Lovely aromatics on the nose, bright berry fruit with dried herbs, tobacco liquorice and aniseed scents. Supple and velvety, this has a creamy touch to the palate with a crisp minerality that leaves a fresh feeling. It's still a little tense, with oak notes evident that just detract from a sense of easy enjoyment, covering the juicy fruit and causing some restriction in terms of energy but there's nice sculpting and it has a dose of Pomerol glamour in the underlying power.

The 2022 Petit-Village is ripe and more exotic on the nose compared to its peers, well defined, with touches of vanilla and sage coming through with time. The palate is medium-bodied with svelte tannins matched with well judged acidity. Very good structure, focused with a harmonious finish, this gets better and better with acquaintance. Tasted blind at the Southwold tasting in London.
