95: Mittleres Granat; aufhellend. Toastige Nase, Butternote; eher wenig Konzentration, Walnüsse als Unterlage in der leicht pflaumigen Frucht. Charmanter, fülliger Gaumen, zeigt Souplesse, Cassisgelee, gut balanciert, satte, etwas erzwungene Struktur (16/20). 05: Die Nase zeigt sich einerseits erdig, vermischt sich aber mit Kokos und restlichen Himbeerspuren. Im Gaumen ist der Wein zwar muskulös aber es ist einfach zu wenig drin und zu wenig dran. 16/20 austrinken

Alluring aromas of violet, berry and vanilla make way for a medium-bodied mouthful of berry and dried herb flavors, silky tannins. Drinkable now, but better in 1999. 4,500 cases made. – .

Thankfully, beginning with the 1996 vintage, the highly-talented Michel Rolland has been brought in to work his magic with this well-placed Pomerol property. As the following tasting notes attest, this wine has not been living up to its potential. Medium dark ruby-colored, with a straightforward, earthy, spicy, curranty, and cherry-scented nose, this dull, hard wine lacks intensity, ripeness, and length. Drink it over the next 6-7 years.

Château Petit Village
Château Petit-Village is located on the highest point of the gravel plateau located in the heart of the Pomerol appellation. The 10.5-hectare vineyard is in a single triangular-shaped plot. Combining age-old vine-growing traditions with modern facilities, optimizes the estate’s enormous potential without having to manipulate nature. Each and every action, from picking the grapes by hand to allowing the wine to rest in oak casks, is guided by the house’s set values. Château Petit-Village wines are powerful, yet soft and well-balanced. The wines have an incomparable richness and finesse that can compete with the greatest wines of Pomerol.
