Wine Advocate: 98 Points
The 2009 is one of the sexiest wines in Pomerol in this vintage offering up notes of melted caramel sweet mocha blackberry and black cherry fruit with hints of loamy soil and unsmoked cigar tobacco as well as a touch of white chocolate and some subtle toasty oak. Round opulent and unctuously textured with a full-bodied mouthfeel fabulous purity and no hard edges this sumptuous fleshy lavishly rich Pomerol can be drunk now and over the next 25 years.
Wine Spectator: 94 Points
This rich toasty showy style boasts lots of flashy anise and espresso notes up front but ample layers of crushed fig steeped plum and dark mixed berry fruit behind it. Nice grip strides in on the finish with a graphite spine adding serious length and definition. This has plenty of steak to match its sizzle. Best from 2015 through 2030. Tasted twice with consistent notes. 1000 cases made.
