Tasting notes

Merlot at its very best! Decant 15 minutes before serving. This small vineyard of less than 2 hectares was taken over by the Mingot family in 2013. Perfectly ripe, with exquisite depth and smooth, velvety tannins. Complex aromas and flavours of black fruit, spice and licorice feature on the nose and palate. A rare, limited availability Lalande de Pomerol.
