An attractive, nicely made wine, the 2019 Taillefer reveals aromas of sweet berries, rose petals and loamy soil, followed by a medium to full-bodied, lively palate framed by powdery tannins that gently assert themselves on the finish.

The 2019 Tailleger is a bold, luscious Pomerol that will drink well right out of the gate. Super-ripe red cherry, kirsch, spice, rose petal, blood orange and mint build nicely in the glass. This is an especially plush, ripe style, but it all works well.
