Note di degustazione
The fresh, lively, full-bodied, opulent 2003 Bon Pasteur reveals the best of this terroir, which, while not the finest of Pomerol, is exploited brilliantly by Dany and Michel Rolland. A deep plum/ruby purple hue shows little lightening at the edge, and the bouquet offers lots of licorice, mocha, black cherry and cassis aromas. This full-bodied, youthful yet delicious 2003 has another decade of aging in it.

Brick rim. Thick and sweet on the nose. Slightly tarry. Absolutely ready to drink and with an admirable lack of the aggressive tannins that mark some 2003s. (JR)
Perfumed, spicy black fruit. Soft, starts full in the mouth but then flattens out to a rather dry finish. Could do with a bit more freshness. (JH)
Red-ruby. Sexy aromas of cherry, smoked meat and minerals, with suggestions of chocolate and mint. Sweet, ripe and full, with better depth of flavor than many of its Pomerol neighbors in 2003. Finishes with ripe, dusty tannins. This has turned out well.
Informazioni sul produttore
Famed winemaking consultant Michel Rolland is synonymous with this estate. The vines here were purchased by his grandparents and he ran the property from 1979. Although Rolland still makes the wine today, he sold the estate in 2013.
