This was the right day. Served blind from a magnum, unaware of its age, I was struck by the depth of its color. The bouquet is almost ine! ably complex, a mixture of red and black fruit, black tru"e (indicating its Pomerol origins) , sage and dried rose petals. It was the delineation and sheer con#dence of the aromatics that leaves you spellbound. The palate is beautifully structured, very Left Bank in style thanks to its tertiary nature, yet bridled with disarming tension and energy from start to #nish. There is a twist of sour cherry right on the aftertaste, completing a stunning Trotanoy. I very much doubt I will ever encounter an example of this outstanding Pomerol as good as this again. Tasted October 2016. *1981 Château Croque Michotte MC St. Emilion GCC (1 bottle; perfect capsule, High shoulder, label a bit yellow on the side.
