2019 Chateau Taillefer Pomerol

9.25/10 stars

Current owner is Bernard Moueix, who is Antoine Moueix great-grandson. Antione was the key personnel who bought over the famed Petrus back in 1929, while Antione also bought Chateau Taillefer back in 1925. I’m sure Antione has certain eyesight and criteria for buying these two great plots of vineyard in Pomerol. I have tasted many vintages of Petrus in the past, while I must confess there isn’t much similarity between Petrus and Taillefer, it’s still a very decent quality wine. Composed of mainly 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, there was no trace of Cabernet Franc when I had my sip, as it was predominantly overwhelmed by the Merlot composition. It’s a very easy-going wine, with red ripe plums and good soft texture, it seemed to possess an early drinking wine, but knowing Merlot coming from Pomerol, they can easily age for half a century without blinking an eyelid. I would recommend drinking this wine over the next decade, as the pleasant structure is very suitable to drink young. If you wish to age it, I also think it’ll be quite an ideal candidate. Upon the advice from the winemaker, he said the best time to taste the wine is 4 hours after opening the bottle, thus I chucked the bottle back to my cellar and retasted it during dinner. Truly, the wine was so much more flavourful and almost double the enjoyment factor, I did not hesitate to highly recommend to fans who are looking for a good Pomerol bottle with decent price!
