Note di degustazione
Intense aroma of pure, small, dark-berried fruit along with toasty oak. Extremely oaky on the palate, lots of extraction and a marked bitterness on the finish. (JH)

This estate has been on a qualitative upswing for a number of years and the 2011 is a seductive effort revealing a dense ruby/plum color as well as fragrant notes of sweet cherries and spice, abundant fruit and glycerin, and a medium-bodied mouthfeel with no hard edges. It is a delicious, textbook Pomerol to drink now and over the next decade. It is a sleeper of the vintage.
I like the quality of the tannins here, which are ripe but not overdone. Full and round with chocolate and berry character. Balanced. jamessuckling.com
Informazioni sul produttore
Close to the Pomerol church, the Labruyère family purchased this property in 1994. They immediately set to work, restructuring the vineyard, renovating the winery and allowing the property to emerge from the shadows.
