Description

Appearance
Medium garnet with a slightly tawny rim — showing its age but still holding beautiful colour after nearly four decades.

Nose
Evolved and savoury with red and black fruits toned down by time. Expect notes of dried plum, undergrowth, cedar, leather and subtle earthiness, complemented by hints of tobacco and spice typical of aged Merlot‑based blends.

Palate
Medium‑bodied with smooth, integrated tannins and a gracious frame. Flavours of dried cherry and plum mingle with forest floor, graphite and savoury tobacco; acidity remains balanced and keeps the wine lively.

Finish
Elegant and persistent with lingering earth, dried fruit and a touch of cedar — a profile that speaks to maturity without losing structure.

Overall Impression
A gracefully aged Lalande‑de‑Pomerol that highlights the approachable, savoury Merlot character of the appellation — ideal for those who enjoy mature Bordeaux with complexity and charm.
