2010 - strong alcohol smell, strong burning taste. Going to let it breath 1-2 hrs to see if it gets any better.

2010, drank in 2015, less body and complexity than expected. Not worth £24.

Beautiful. Needs decanting but once it's caught it's breathe this is a beauty. Strong heady scents of everything wonderful about Bordeaux wine. Was fantastic with a fatty cut of slow cooked lamb.

Reasonably good Pomerol at decent price. 2010 vintage still very young and needs a lot of breathing. Cherries and subtle oak with lots of tannin.

Tea and black currant. Wonderfully balanced tannins, dry and earthy. Requires substantial aeration, at least 45 minutes. Perfect accompaniment with steak.
