Note di degustazione
Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2018 La Patache wafts out of the glass with fragrant scents of Morello cherries, boysenberry preserves and stewed red and black plums, plus hints of rose oil and powdered cinnamon. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers taut, muscular, energetic red and black fruits with a firm, finely grained framed and seamless freshness, finishing long and perfumed. This is a gorgeous, soft-spoken expression of Pomerol that has exceeded my expectations.

The 2018 La Patache has a tightly wound nose featuring quite intense Cabernet Franc aromas, even though that variety represents only 15% of the blend. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, well-judged acidity, slightly tarry black fruit mixed with black pepper and a touch of tobacco on the finish, which feels just a little austere. Give this 2–3 years in bottle.
Showing nicely, the 2018 Château La Patache has a rounded, nicely textured, medium to full-bodied style that carries plenty of darker berry fruits, some classic Pomerol damp earth and floral notes, ripe tannins, and outstanding length on the finish. It's ideal for enjoying over the coming 10-12 years.
