This 500-case cuvee from Bernard Magrez comes from a parcel of vines carved out of his Pessac-Leognan estate of Chateau Poumey. Classic Graves aromas of smoked herbs, charcoal, scorched earth, and copious quantities of sweet black currant and cherry fruit soar from this deep, exuberant, fleshy, sexy wine. Consume it over the next 7-8 years.

Chateau Poumey’s luxury cuvee, this 2004's dense plum/ruby color is followed by lovely aromas of smoked herbs and meaty black currant scents, elegant, concentrated flavors, moderate tannin, and good freshness as well as length. It is a sleeper of the vintage to enjoy over the next 4-6 years.
