Readers looking for an unabashedly exotic, seductive, sexy Pomerol should check out this 100% Merlot cuvee from Christian Moueix. Its dark ruby/plum color is accompanied by an unbridled display of sweet black and blue fruits and spring flowers. Full-bodied and opulent with silky tannins and juicy fruit. RP
I like it right away. Sort of like the forest floor, with mushrooms. Has grip, tannins – almost dusty tannins. Turns to coffee; I like the way it changes in the glass. Open, soft, spices, and some tobacco. Very beautiful, open wine. JS
