Very expressive nose of morello cherry and brown tobacco, with sweet notes of liquorice candy and peony. A complex palate, expressing violet and fresh blackcurrant, nishing with hints of thyme and a touch of bitter orange zest that gives the nish a gourmet taste. It is a sensual and charming, yet restrained Saint-Estephe. Silky, smooth tannins give this Pez 2018 a precise and rened length.
This is a full-bodied, rich and concentrated wine revealing a deep ruby red hue. It develops with great elegance and no rough edges. The fruit is ripe yet fresh. Blueberry and blackberry mingle with a gentle blast of liquorice. It displays a perfect unctuous maturity, the finesse of the tannins gives the wine a velvety character and good length. We love the great mastery shown by the vintage.
2018 is vibrant from the first nose thanks to its brilliant fruit. An aromatic explosion that mingles aromas of cherries with delicious notes of marzipan ... Minty notes of cedar and rose provide a burst of freshness. Carried by this ethereal balance, the wine then reveals its depth and density. It is full-blooded and full-bodied, yet always elegant. The palate is broad, the tannins refined and silky. It possesses the delectable tangy sweetness of a Bakewell tart. This 2018 shows all the power and grace of a prima ballerina, lost in her art.
"Very rich dark berries and plums with an attractive and deep, fresh-fruit edge. The palate has a very smooth, fresh and sweetly fruited core with ripe, plush and approachable tannins. A blend of 81 per cent merlot, 13 per cent cabernet franc and six per cent petit verdot. Try from 2020." James Suckling

Chateau La Tour Carnet 2020 is a very deep, with a brilliant ruby red color. The first nose is very fruity with notes of ripe fruit, in particular blackcurrant and blackberry. This perception becomes more complex when stirred with vanilla notes that underline the fruity perception. On the palate, we quickly notice the silky and the finesse of the tannins which give a very elegant density and good balance. The evolution is powerful but controlled until the long and smooth finish.
2nd Label of Château Nénin
This second wine is the expression typical of the charm of Pomerol. Fugue is a reference to the musical universe; it is a repetition of the main theme. This interpretation makes sense at the tasting, so much Fugue agrees with the tones of its elder while offering an entertaining and seductive expression.

The style of Clos Beauregard is marked by the succulence and roundness of the Merlot grape. The mouth is persistent with aromas of bilberry jam and vanilla, while the end note is delightfully balanced and elegant and suggests good ageing potential. This is a cru full of body and charm.

Made to the same rigorous standards as the First Wine, from grapes grown in the same vineyard, La Dame de Montrose is the estate’s second label. Supple and silky Merlot generally predominates in the varietal mix. Its very pronounced red fruit aromas and flavors reflect another expression of the terroir in a distinctive style which is less elaborately complex than that of the First Wine.
The nose is already very present and powerful, with notes of ripe and fresh fruits such as burnt cherry and pomegranate. In mouth, the attack is ample with a beautiful intensity. A wine of a beautiful power while remaining very greedy and round. The fresh woody taste, well blended, expresses itself on notes of praline pastry. The finish is long and expresses all its potential with a lot of brightness.
A complex nose with lots of present aromas. Intense floral notes of rose and violet as well as wild basil and rosemary. A lovely complex, savory, rounded palate. Flavours of strawberry, morello cherry and white tobacco. Fine and well-tuned, long and unctuous; well-structured, well-balanced and intense.
Since 2011, one hectare (2.5 acres) of the vineyard in the upper part of the plateau on which the estate is situated has been set aside for the production of a white wine, Tronquoy-Lalande Blanc.
The dress has a beautiful pale yellow color, very bright. The nose is clean and lively, with a very developed aromatic expression. It releases aromas peach and quince, mixed with notes of exotic fruits. We also find a hint of minerality revealing the gravel of the vineyard. The palate is fresh and aromatic with controlled fat and a very nice balance. The lingering finish offers great complexity.
An echo of the First Wine's character, Château Lynch Bages.
Like its big brother, Echo de Lynch-Bages displays the characteristic taste, aromas and length of Pauillac wines. As an echo of the first wine, it receives the same care and attention from the vine to the cellars. It is the result of a selection of Lynch-Bages' youngest vines and specific plots which represent between 25 to 40 % of the harvest depending on the vintage. Echo de Lynch-Bages, the second wine of the estate, displays savoury aromas of fresh red fruits. Round, mellow and seductive in its youth, its ability to age is outstanding.
We put the juice in only 6 barrels to process the alcoholic fermentation with stirring the lees. No malolactic fermentation. 3 barrels new and 3 barrels of one year. 50% oak and 50% acaccia. French from Allier forest. Ageing during 6 months in barrel and 24 months in bottle.

"A rich, powerful red with so much fruit and intensity. It’s full-bodied with masses of fruit with vanilla and coffee character and a long, warm finish. Layered and intense. Really needs time in the bottle to come together. Better after 2025." - James Suckling
"Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Clerc Milon leaps from the glass with beautiful scents of chocolate-covered cherries, plum preserves and crushed blackcurrants with suggestions of lilacs, cardamom, underbrush and unsmoked cigars. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has a firm frame of finely grained tannins and seamless freshness lifting the perfumed fruit to a nice long finish." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
