2007 Chateau la Grave A Pomerol
Description
Tasted blind at Farr Vintners 2007 Bordeaux tasting. The 2007 La Grave a Pomerol slightly exceeded my expectations. There is a slight aloofness on the nose at first, but with aeration this gradually unfolds to reveal pleasant, black truffle and smoke-tinged black fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with leafy black fruit, quite herbaceous in style but in a positive sense, since it is supported by freshness and vitality. This is a perfectly decent early-drinking Pomerol. Tasted March 2015.

Tasting note
2007年的格拉芙堡波美侯特里岡德波瑟特展現了波美侯豐富的釀酒傳統。這款酒呈現出經典的風味，由91%梅洛和9%品麗珠混釀而成，交織出豐富的口感。香氣中帶有成熟的香料水果香，讓人聯想到黑森林蛋糕和乾燥的紅玫瑰，伴隨著淡淡的可可氣息。口感上，紅梅和黑梅的風味與黑加侖子完美融合，尾韻留有泥土般的乾癟百里香。結構良好，黑色水果的核心被胡椒和香料的氣息所點綴，使其成為一款令人愉悅的佳釀。無論是搭配眼肉牛排、慢煮燉肉、番茄醬意粉或是硬質乾酪，這款酒都是絕佳的選擇。建議醒酒一小時後飲用，以充分體驗其層次感。
The 2007 Chateau La Grave a Pomerol Trigant de Boisset is a testament to the rich heritage of the Pomerol region. This wine, with its savory and classic profile, is a blend of 91% Merlot and 9% Cabernet Franc, offering a symphony of flavors. The nose is greeted with a developed bouquet of spiced fruit, reminiscent of black forest cake and dried red roses, with a subtle touch of cocoa. On the palate, it delivers a harmonious blend of red and black plums, cassis, and a lingering finish of earthy dried thyme. With a good structure and a core of black fruit, it is accented by notes of pepper and spice, making it a delightful wine to enjoy now or to keep until 2025. Perfectly paired with an eye fillet, slow-cooked roasts, tomato-based pasta, or a selection of hard cheeses, this wine is best served after decanting for an hour to fully appreciate its complexity.
