Peter Maude Fine Wines
2021, Espérance de Trotanoy, AOC POMEROL
$126
100% Merlot
Vine age averages 30 years. Brought up on gravelly soils and clay. Good exposure to the sun. Hand-picked. Slightly elevated on the "Plateau of Pomerol".
Spicy, smokey nose with damson plums. Round and juicy with blackberries on the attack, both fruity and mineral. Lots of finesse and complexity in this Pomerol. Long lasting finish. Katharine Maude Oct 2024.
