Note di degustazione
Plums, ripe black fruits, tobacco, and scorched earth notes emerge from the 2019 Château La Patache, a medium-bodied, reasonably well-balanced Pomerol that offers enjoyment, yet doesn't play with the top wines of the appellation.

The 2019 La Patache exhibits aromas of cherries, ripe berries, violets, rich spices and dark chocolate, followed by a full-bodied, velvety and seamless palate that's rich and fleshy, with broad shoulders and a powerful, gourmand profile. This derives from holdings in three sectors: one defined by iron-rich gravels, another by deep, well-drained gravels and the third by soils richer in clay. It's part of Peter Kwok's right bank portfolio.
The 2019 La Patache has a generous bouquet that needs some time to coalesce in the glass. A bit smudged at first, it gradually musters more delineation, revealing mulberry, undergrowth and slightly mushroom-like aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with quite a sharp entry, that bitter finish rather accentuated since its showing from barrel, prompting me to be more prudent with my score. I left the sample for a couple of hours to see if there was any improvement, but it never quite developed the flesh on the finish that I was expecting.
