Note di degustazione
The 2025 Petit-Village comes from the widest part of the "triangle" of vineyards and is matured in 45% new oak for 16 months, including 20% in demi-muids. It is a little reticent at first, opening with a mixture of blackberry and raspberry fruit, hints of pencil-box and light orange-rind scents. It takes a few swirls of the glass to get going, but it is nicely defined. The palate is well balanced, with pliant and supple tannins, fine acidity, quite linear in style and maybe just missing the precision of the very top Pomerols on the finish. But I appreciate this style of Petit-Village—less rustic and more precise than vintages a decade ago, perhaps starting to fully articulate its terroir. One to watch.

An ultra-classic Pomerol, the 2025 Château Petit-Village comes from gravelly clay soils and is based on 60% Merlot, 32% Cabernet Franc, and 8% Cabernet Sauvignon. Ripe black cherries, graphite, chocolaty herbs, and spice all define the aromatics, and on the palate, it's medium to full-bodied and balanced, with ripe tannins and clean, perfectly integrated acidity. Another beautiful effort from this château that merits serious attention today.
The 2025 Petit-Village is hugely promising. The two Cabernets are especially prominent in this year’s blend. Strong savory overtones, graphite, new leather, licorice, dried herbs and chocolate convey serious intensity. There's plenty of the 2025 vintage's concentration, but also enough fruit to balance things out. I am looking forward to seeing how this develops with élevage.
