Château La Cabanne
Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend
What an incredible Pomerol! Not quite like some more modern styles with the powerful fruit forwardness. The nose was so multidimensional. There were notes of stewed fruits, cherry syrup, balsamic reduction, tobacco, & gamey meat just flying out of the bowl. The color was slightly garnet, but still holding onto it's powerful red. The pallet exhibited notes of dark cherries, espresso bean, chalky minerals, and a very gripping dry finish due to an ample tannin structure. It was an absolute delight, and sees many more years in its future.

Nice return on investment for this Bordeaux. Drinking well with still enough ripe fruit to make it young yet has some hints of age with notes of pencil shavings. Really a steal. Paired it with gumbo tonight

Feb 8th, 2020Still feels young for a solid year in Bordeaux. Tannins up front followed by blueberries, cola, and hints of chocolate. Tannins balanced the bone in rib eye we paired it with. Hold for 5-10 years. Definitely built for the long haul. 93 pts.
