朗克洛城堡红葡萄酒

Probably the finest wine made at l’Enclos since the 1982, the American proprietor of Fonplegade (the Adams family) has done a good job at this estate. While it will never be a big wine, this cuvee is based more on sensuality and pure fruit than body, structure, and aging potential. The 2006 exhibits sweet black cherries interwoven with floral and herbal undertones. Medium-bodied, pure, fleshy, and attractively textured, it should be drunk over the next 7-8 years.

For Merlot from Pomerol, this wine has a surprising austerity to it. The tannins are initially dominant, with their leather character. But then, the layer of sweet juiciness does shine through, giving freshness and some vibrant flavors. It needs time to knit together though—give it at least four years.——R.V.(6/1/2009)—— 89
