Vieux Chateau Brun Pomerol 2015
TBH, we weren't familiar with this particular Chateau when we lined it up. But, this wine absolutely crushed some other Right Bank competition (we won't name names, but they were all twice the price of or more) in a blind tasting we did here at the Napa office. Beautiful ruby red color with purple reflections. The scintillating scents are rich in black fruit, saddle leather, flowers and red cherries. In the mouth, the wine is well-structured, nicely concentrated and harmonious with soft tannins that result in a long, persistent finish.
Normally $40, we think this is a huge no-brainer for lovers of the rare Pomerol wines. Really quite amazing. We have about 30 cases to sell --- this WILL go fast!
