Enclos de Viaud Lalande-de-Pomerol 2022
90 Points - Jeff Leve. Situated on the banks of the Barbanne river which separates Lalande from Pomerol, this is some of the finest terroir and one of the best-performing properties in the appellation. This medium-bodied red displays a fantastic structure with lovey fine tannins that provide plenty of structural backbone. A supple, sensual red Bordeaux with instant appeal and a long path of pleasure ahead.
Wine Press Ratings
90 Points - Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider (2022 Vintage)
"Black cherries, licorice, and smoke along with a touch of cocoa is what you find in the nose. Medium-bodied, soft, forward, and fruity with a chocolate-coated core of black cherry fruit on the palate, this is going to be delicious on release. Drink from 2025-2032."
90 Points - Falstaff (2021)
"Dark garnet, purple hues at the rim. Fine herbal savouriness, hints of dark berries, a little nougat and herbs, red cherry in the background. Medium-bodied, fresh and mineral, integrated tannins, salty finish; a versatile, accessible food companion."
