2016 vintage. Jérémy Chasseuil is working miracles here. Needs a bit of air, but after half an hour in the decanter it really started to shine. Intense perfume of raspberries, blueberries, violets, rosemary and a hint of truffles lurking in the background. Concentrated, with layers of red and black fruit and subtle spices. Velvety tannins and hardly noticeable oak. Very long too. Still very much under the radar, a great chance to buy a high end Pomerol for less than a 100 euro. — 18 days ago

Beautiful color of dark ruby with a wide reddish rim.

Elegant nose of blueberries, plums, cooked cherries, light cedar, earth, herbs, chocolates, black pepper, eucalyptus, licorice, herbs and Mediterranean spices.

Medium plus in body and elegant, with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with black currants, plums, cherries, light oak, spices, dark chocolates, light mint, coffee, peppercorn, licorice, herbs, light earth and black tea.

Long finish with round tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a delicious Merlot from the great 2016 vintage in Pomerol. Nicely balanced and fruit forward.

Still young and restrained, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, but drinking so well already. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years. Has good potential to become a 94+ point wine.

Rich and chewy. Complex, entertaining and good by itself as a sipping wine.

A blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. Aged for 16 months in (70% new) French Oak barrels.

14% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

Выпито ,375 Ronan by Clinet в Обнинске. Прекрасное мягкое рабочее Бордо в Померольсеом стиле. Очень зашло. Цена - смешная, 760 рублей в Vinoterra. Надо будет забрать остатки. Сегодня Женя подарил мне фантастический подарок на Дееь Рождения! Они с женой большие молодцы! — 4 years ago

Dry on the palate with mild complexity.

Showing red and black fruits with light earth, spices, tobacco, plums, chocolates and black pepper.

Tangy finish with raspberries and fine grained tannins.

I had the 2016 a couple of years ago and it is very consistent.

Good right out of the bottle and good by itself or with food.

A blend of 95% Merlot and the rest is Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon.

2015 vintage. A very fine Castillon by Denis Durantou ( of Eglise-Clinet fame). Better the second day, so you might want to decant. Totally outperforming stablemate Les Cruzelles ( Lalande de Pomerol), tasted alongside. Good red fruit concentration, balancing the typical Castillon chalkiness. 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon.Abv. 14,5% — 4 days ago

This Castillion Chateau was acquired by the late Denis Durantou of L'Eglise Clinet roughly 15 years ago. Just as promised it delivers excellent value. Damp earth, currants, plums, black truffle and some green notes. Very solid. Would buy again. 2019 is the last vintage Monsieur Darantou harvested. — a year ago
