The 2012 Prieurs de la Commanderie Pomerol is blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc that benefits from the winemaking expertise of Clement Fayat and consulting efforts of Michel Rolland. As this opens up it releases aromas of blackberries and cherries followed by spices, licorice and hints of crushed stones. It possesses a silky texture, nice structure and long finish. This is still extremely young and will require at least a few more years of bottle age before it should be considered as ready. (Best 2017-2024) - December, 2014 (JD)
