Vignobles Carles Château Croix des Rouzes Pomerol 2018

“The 2018 Château Croix Des Rouzes is terrific, with a ripe, mouth-filling, full-bodied style that stays nicely balanced and fresh. Notes of chocolate-covered blueberries, tobacco, smoked earth, and spice dominate the bouquet, and it has velvety tannins, a creamy, decadent texture, and outstanding length. It should keep for a good decade or so.”
