Perfumed, quite elegant compared to the pommard but with some funkiness. White pepper spice here for me as well. In the mouth there is spiced red berries with medium plus intensity acid. Nice but short.
Bordeaux Pauillac wines are rich and concentrated, full-bodied reds with grippy tannins, and characteristic notes of cassis, cedar and cigar box spice. The best examples come from blends with a base of high-quality Cabernet Sauvignon and are often considered the quintessential example of a Bordeaux wine.Pauillac, in Bordeaux's Left Bank Médoc region, boasts well-draining gravel soils, which in turn translates to higher quality wines; and those from Pauillac age extremely well. Three of the five first-growths from the 1855 classification of the Médoc are situated in Pauillac: Lafite, Latour, and Mouton-Rothschild.
