Le Jardin de Petit-Village Pomerol 2019

The second wine of Château Petit-Village, crafted from younger Merlot vines on Pomerol's central plateau in sustainably farmed gravel-clay soils. Purple-ruby in color, it shows fresh red fruit aromatics with delicate spice notes and a superbly balanced, smooth palate that welcomes earlier drinking than the grand vin. This is an approachable introduction to one of Pomerol's most respected addresses, designed for pleasure over complexity.
