Chateau de Valois Pomerol 2016 Review
This wine smells like cherries, figs, along with some notes of twigs and balsamic. It could still age way longer, as the palate still has structured tannins that need a little more time, but it is drinking well now. Let it open for 30 minutes in a decanter, or age for another 1-2 years.
