In a few words ...
Vinified since 2008 under the guidance of Hubert de Boüard, co-owner of the prestigious Château Angélus in Saint-Emilion, the wines of Château La Pointe offer a clean, frank expression of fruit thanks to well-ripened grapes, with lovely freshness and elegant tannins. J. Suckling : 93-94/100
A very fine wine from Château La Pointe, sapid and juicy, with beautifully ripe fruit and tannins.
Tasting notes
Appearance
The Pomerol's dress is most often dark ruby and purple hues in its youth and an appearance of brick hues with aging.
Aroma
The bouquet is often very rich and complex with notes of black and red fruits. Also note the presence of empyreumatic with leather, roasting and a vanilla tip.
Wine Brutish | Floral | Fruity | Spicy
Taste
The tannins of the Pomerols are rather robust, we will wait a certain maturity to find a perfectly balanced wine. Note the presence of ripe black fruits including blackcurrant, and sometimes truffle.

A wine for laying down par excellence, with fruity aromas that I'm sure will give way to much more complex ones, and we're going to love it.

A very, very high-level wine, still a little young of course, but a real nugget in the making.
