Chateau la Pointe Pomerol 2011 i trækasse

"90-92 points. Very fine from Eric Monnoret and his team" - Robert Parker

"91 points. A Pomerol with outstanding depth of fruit and structure for the vintage... Full, velvety tannins. Very polished, too." - James Suckling

Genfødt – og i dag blandt de bedste i Pomerol...

I tæt samarbejde med St-Émilion-stjernen Hubert de Boüard (fra 1er Grand Cru Classé A-slottet Angelus), har Eric Monneret siden sin ansættelse i 2008 genrejst og genfødt Château de la Pointe, der i dag tilhører Pomerols absolutte elite.

Vinene har hele tiden været gode, men de 23 hektar på gamle grusaflejringer fra Isle-floden har hele tiden haft potentiale til at levere druer og vin i en endnu højere kvalitet.

Studier af jordbunden og forbedrede dræningsforhold har løftet kvaliteten af druerne, der nu høstes og vininficeres parcelvist, så vinkvaliteten nu indfrier frugtens og terroirets fulde potentiale.

Renovationer af gæringshallen og samarbejdet med Hubert De Boüard er prikken over i’et, der har gjort de la Pointe til en af tidens vigtigste Pomerol-slotte – og til prisen det måske allerbedste!

Ved køb af 6 flasker leveres vinen i original trækasse.

Anmeldelser af Château La Pointe Pomerol 2011

94/100 Tim Atkin MW

92/100 La Revue du Vin de France

90-92/100 Robert Parker
"The La Pointe 2011 has a focused bouquet with fresh dark berry fruit that is totally in tune with the new oak. There is a nice touch of oyster shell developing with time. The palate is succulent and supple on the entry with lifted dark berries, fine minerality and quite a dense finish that does not exhibit any of the greenness that an old La Pointe would have in such a vintage. Very fine from Eric Monnoret and his team"

91/100 James Suckling
"A Pomerol with outstanding depth of fruit and structure for the vintage, featuring chocolate, berry and spice character. Full, velvety tannins. Very polished, too. Need another three or four years to come together. "

90/100 Wine Spectator
"Very solid, with a ganache spine supporting the enticing dark plum and fig fruit flavors, while bramble and singed wood spice notes fill in on the finish. Approachable now, this should mellow in the short-term. Drink now through 2021."

90/100 Falstaff
"Dark ruby garnet, violet reflections, delicate rim lightening. Restrained, with a touch of dry moss underlying red berry fruit, tobacco nuances. Medium complexity, fine herbal spiciness at the core, fresh, looks a bit wide-meshed, lemony touch, delicate chocolate note in the aftertaste."
