2021, Château Plince, AOC POMEROL

Bordeaux Blend: Merlot, Cabernet Franc.

Château Plince is situated just outside the village of Catusseau in Pomerol, and has been owned by the Moreau family for over four generations. The vineyard, planted on dark sand with an iron-rich subsoil, is made up of one block and counts Châteaux Nenin and La Pointe as its neighbours. Château Plince produces a classic Pomerol with the beautiful fruit, depth and concentration typical of this appellation.

Generous, with Pomerol signature of mint leaf and cocoa bean, enjoyable berry fruits, slightly bitter fennel and tannic bite on the finish but this is easy to recommend. 90 Jane Anson.
