Note di degustazione
The 2014 Bourgneuf had a backward bouquet, broody and introspective at first, although it opens with aeration to reveal pure blackberry, wild strawberry, cold granite and almost flinty aromas that are very attractive. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin. This is well structured, very linear and represents quite a masculine Bourgneuf compared to recent vintages. I suspect that this has closed up in bottle, though there is the substance to suggest that it will age well over a number of years. Afford it three or four years in the cellar and then it will find its voice.

The 2014 Bourgneuf is a very pretty wine. Blood orange, rose petal, sweet tobacco, herbs and spices give it much of its exotic personality. Gracious and medium in body, the 2014 will drink well with minimal cellaring. This is an especially delicate, perfumed style of Pomerol, but there is good underlying depth. Tasted two times.
The 2014 Bourgneuf is round, supple and expressive, with lovely nuance. Succulent black cherries, plums, smoke, spice and licorice notes blossom effortlessly in the glass. The pliant finish and suave tannins both suggest the 2014 will drink well relatively early, yet it also clearly has the stuffing to develop beautifully in bottle for many years. This is an especially silky, finessed style.
Crimson with a rather pale rim. A little rustic on the nose then very sweet on the palate. Robust, old-style Pomerol. Plump and satisfying without being terribly ambitious. (JR)
