Château La Cabanne Pomerol 2016

Château La Cabanne 2016 Producer: Château La Cabanne – AOC Pomerol Variety: 94% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc Alcohol: 14.5% Optimal consumption period: 2021 – 2040 94 Points ”James S” Points very floral and fragrant that has deep shades of shale and stone, with an abundance of fresh berries, plums and dudes. The notes of shale and graphite persist until the end, with a wealth of super fine, velvety and concentrated tannins. Try it from 2022. ” 93 Parker Points Edition 2015 – 95 James Suckling Points:“ A dense and rich wine with aromas of ripe fruit and full of muscle. Full-bodied, round, with juicy tannins and a very fragrant finish. Enjoy the undertones of berries, orange peel and cedar. Best ever made It takes four or five years to harmonize. ” – 94 Parker Points:“ La Cabanne 2015 is a blend of 95% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc. The owner François Estager told me that this is the first edition in which he did not use any sulfur (one of the few areas that moves in this direction). I tasted it on three occasions. The nose offers notes of black fruit with a thorny stem, hedge and cold stone – certainly more sophisticated than recent editions, with an impressive purity. On the palate, the fine tannins and well-thought-out acidity are nicely balanced with the fruit and the new oak notes at the end. This Pomerol sets the date to become a delicious wine that you will enjoy drinking for several decades.
