A stylish, rich, blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon picked wonderfully ripe and aged in 100% new French oak. Still wants an hour in decanter now and will sing for a couple of decades.
"The 2016 La Pointe has a lovely raspberry and crushed strawberry bouquet that gently unfolds in the glass, revealing hints of lavender in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin and a fine bead of acidity, and quite elegant and savory toward the finish. Not the longest-term Pomerol on the block, but a finely made wine by Eric Monnoret and his team, and I appreciate the pepperiness on the aftertaste. Drink 2020-2045"
