2021 La Petite Eglise, Pomerol

2021 La Petite Eglise, Pomerol

Tasted April 2022. Smoky and rich on the nose with tobacco, leather, licquorice and baking spices framing a core of ripe cherry, black plum fruit. The tannins are very fine and there's bright acidity in good balance. There's a lovely mineral, crunchy note on the finish making it very appetising.

Tasting notes

The 2021 La Petite Eglise is an intriguing wine, although it naturally lacks the dynamic energy of the best years. Succulent red cherry, blood orange, cinnamon, new leather, spice and cedar all meld together. Gracious and supple, with tons of charm, La Petite Eglise is quite seductive in 2021.
