Description
The 2015 Château Lécuyer has a perfumed and floral bouquet of crushed purple violets filtering through the dark cherry and cassis fruit, which gains more complexity as it opens up in the glass. The palate is medium to full-bodied with fine tannins that are cloaked in layers of lightly toasted oak spice and dark bramble berry fruits. Emeric has created another exemplary Pomerol from this super 3 hectare estate that continues to threaten to break into the big league and join the top table along side close neighbours such as Chateau Petrus. This wine is absolutely delicious and deserves greater recognition. Drink from 2018 to 2035. 93-93-95/100 Greg Sherwood MW
