Tasting Notes
Very attractive fine red berry and passion fruit aromas. On the palate, elegant plum and blackcurrant fruits are balanced by integrated tannins and a lively vein of acidity which gives lift and focus. Medium, rather than full bodied, it is a harmonious and stylish wine which will be delicious in a few years. Drink 2015 - 2025
Reviews & Scores
2010: An undeniable sleeper of the vintage, this may be the finest Poujeaux I have tasted in three decades. A crushed rock/mineral character is intertwined with abundant black currant, blackberry, incense and camphor notes in this full-bodied, unctuously textured, elegant, pure effort. It is capable of lasting 15 years. Kudos to new proprietor Philippe Cuvelier (also the owner of St.-Emilion¿s Clos Fourtet) for resurrecting this well-known estate.
