What to Expect

Arguably the most renowned wines on earth, the classed growths of Bordeaux continue to epitomize the power and complexity Bordeaux blends are capable of. While most wines here are based on Cabernet Sauvignon, both Merlot and Cabernet Franc play important roles in adding layered complexity to the finished wines, and allow winemakers in each commune within the region to use the blend that is best suited to their unique combination of soil and meso-climate. The most famous communes each have their own classic traits with St. Estephe giving full, if rustic wines, from the heavy clay soils, to Paulliac's elegant balance of ripe fruits, minerality and structure to St. Julien's rich blackberry core and supple feel. Moving to the South of the region brings one to Margaux, with its notes of flowers and berries draped over a feminine frame, and then to the Graves region with wines redolent of tobacco, gravel and smoke. To the East lies the famous appellations of St. Emillion, with its wonderfully ripe Cabernet Franc, and Pomerol where Merlot rules the roost and produces deep, plush wines of uncommon refinement.

A prodigious effort, the dense purple-colored 2000 La Gomerie boasts spectacular aromas of roasted coffee, sweet, jammy black cherry and currant fruit, more tannin than normal, but a sumptuous, thick, expansive, juicy mid-section as well as finish.

Rating: 92/100 - As reviewed by International Wine Cellar in Issue 108, May/June 2003 ($109-$149) Full medium ruby. Exotic, slightly candied aromas of roasted raspberry, musky espresso, earth, smoke, coffee bean and sweet, nutty oak. Superripe, lush and fat; at once chewy and velvety, with superb depth of flavor. Sweet, sappy flavors of black cherry and licorice nicely firmed by underlying minerality. Finishes long and subtle, with substantial but fine tannins and excellent vinosity. A lovely expression of merlot and a great success for this tiny property.
