2019 | Château la Croix du Casse | Pomerol (Half Bottle)

Château La Croix du Casse 2019 presents a cherry red color. Very expressive, the aromatic bouquet reveals notes of red fruits reminiscent of currant and plum combined with floral notes. On the palate, the mouth develops gradually, revealing a gourmet and mellow texture with already well-integrated tannins while retaining great freshness.

Reviews:

• Decanter: A lovely rich and supple Pomerol that manages to capture plenty of the essence of the appellation but still be an early to medium term drinker with welcoming tannins and plenty of supple but gourmet textured berry fruits - blackberry and black cherry are dominant, with chocolate shavings at every step.

• James Suckling: Orange-peel, dark-berry and violet character. Medium to full body with layers of fine, velvety tannins and a long, intense finish.
