Tasting note Ame de Musset Lalande de Pomerol
Beautiful, full red colour, spicy and spicy of aroma with red fruit and light, spicy nuances of oak. The taste structure is full, powerful and balanced in the aftertaste with ripe tannin.
Description
The best wines of Lalande-de-Pomerol compete with good Pomerol and Saint-Emilion. So also the beautiful Ame de Musset, owned by Pascal Delbeck since 2004.
This now iconic winemaker halted the decline of Premier Grand Cru Classé Château Ausone in Saint-Emilion in the 1970s and 1980s and restored the top level to this top estate.
The small five-hectare vineyard in Lalande-de-Pomerol is planted with 80% Merlot and 10% each of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. Only around 20,000 bottles are produced annually. Pascal Delbeck shows his skills and makes a textbook example of high-quality Bordeaux, with complexity and beautiful ripe tannins.
The influence of fifteen months maturation in French oak barrels - half new and half one year old - is seductively present and builds beautifully over the years. We bought the last cases of the 2010 harvest, one of the finest vintages. Ame de Musset is ready to drink now, but could easily continue to mature for up to ten years after the harvest.
