Chateau Bourgneuf Pomerol 2016 750ml

Château Bourgneuf represents one of Pomerol's historic properties, where old vines and traditional winemaking create wines of profound depth. This 2016 showcases the estate in one of the Right Bank's greatest modern vintages.

The wine opens with intense aromas of black fruits and violets, immediately signaling the 2016's exceptional quality. As it develops, layers unfold - truffle, dark chocolate, espresso, and that distinctive Pomerol iron-rich minerality. The old vines' concentration is evident in every aspect. On the palate, the tannins are both powerful and velvety, creating that paradox of strength and seduction that defines great Pomerol. Fresh acidity maintains balance despite the wine's richness, while the finish extends with remarkable persistence.

This 2016 Bourgneuf stands as one of the property's finest modern achievements. The combination of perfect vintage conditions and the estate's improving quality creates a wine that rivals many more famous names. While approachable now with decanting, this has the structure to evolve magnificently over the coming decades. For those seeking authentic Pomerol with both power and finesse, this bottle delivers exceptional quality.
