Top vintage Pom @ £68 that’s drinking nice as long as you love oak 😁 Well integrated with silky tannins but oak dominates - for money there are better less oaky options 😉 One to drink up now 👍

🏵 90-91 points

🍷 Opaque ruby w/ brick edge

👃 Rich burnt oak w/ minerals drowning dark sludgy plum & berry in a damp musty cellar w/ soot, soggy earth, herbs & baked prune

👄 Med body of creamy silk smooth oak dominated dark chewy plum & berry fruits w/ a mocha cream & mineral kick

🎯 Med+ creamy dark fruits bathed in oak w/ a burnt liquorice & mocha linger

1998. Last bottle, a little past prime. Lost most fruit but nice secondary flavors.

Classic Pomerol. But a little tired. No decanting needed.
