Chateau Petit Village 2005

Weinwisser: "Sehr dunkles Granat, rubiner Rand aussen. Wuchtiges, reiches Bouquet, malzige Süsse, ein Hauch Feigen, Schokonoten und schwerer Brombeergelee. Fülliger, rollender Gaumen, fett und schwer, viel Lakritze und wiederum schwarze Schokolade im aromatischen, nach fermentiertem Tee schmeckenden Finale. Ein Rubens-Pomerol."

Wine Spectator: "Milk chocolate and blackberry aromas follow through to a full body, with very soft tannins and a long, caressing finish. This is so delicious now, but has a balance of fruit and tannins. One of the best from this estate in some time. Best after 2014. 2,500 cases made."

Wine Enthusiast: "Fruity and smoky, this wine succeeds on its charm, with soft tannins, acidity and superripe fruit. With its (for Pomerol) high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon, the wine certainly has structure, but maybe misses on richness."
