pomegranate and hints of rose petal

Stunning levels of depth

Moderate but not invasive wood sets off overtly floral red and dark berry fruit aromas that are liberally spiked with warm earth and spice wisps

The wine is amazing expressive now

Rich and opulent for Petrus (maybe the most opulent that Jean-Claude Berrouet ever made) and yet it retains a sense of symmetry and freshness on the finish that I think is unique to this Pomerol

Fourrier, Gevrey Chambertin Combe Moines Vv other_regions pomegranate and hints of roseA fascinating mix of vibrant, indeed even racy red fruit aromas and pungent wet earth notes lead to linear, frank and direct flavors that are fuller, richer and denser than those of the Champeaux but ultimately less complex and not quite as deep on the backend. Still, this is delicious and striking in its way.
