Note di degustazione
Coffee, cocoa and black cherry plus a bit of granitic aroma too. Lovely complexity and goût de terroir here, from an over-performing château. (RH)

The 2008 Poujeaux has an appealing red berry, cedar and tobacco-scented bouquet that might just miss the delineation of its peers, but it seems to gain clarity in the glass if never slipping into fifth gear. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannin, fresh in the mouth with a cohesive and quite persistent finish that suggest it will repay another couple of years in bottle. (Tasted at BI Wine & Spirit’s annual 10-Year On tasting.)
Colour not that different from that of the 2011! Sweet, almost raisiny nose. Then the fruit almost disappears. Very fast fade. Something metallic on the end. (JR)
