Note di degustazione
Nearly lavish aromas of sweet, toasty, vanillin oak and ripe berry fruit soar from the glass of the seductive 1990. In the mouth, one could wish for more depth, but overall, this is a richly fruity, soft, elegant, yet still interesting Pomerol that should drink beautifully for another 7-8 years.

The 1990 La Croix de Gay has a more appealing nose than the 1989, perhaps more exotic in style with sloe, roasted herb, shoe leather and sage aromas emerging with good lift in the glass. The palate is well balanced with a grainy entry and a citrus freshness that balances the ripe, meaty mid-palate. Firm and nicely structured with a saline touch toward the off-dry finish, this is a very fine 1990 that should age well over another decade. Tasted June 2011. Tasting note taken from the Pomerol book by Neal Martin.
