Château Séraphine, AOC Pomerol (WOOD CASE)-C335

Elegant and integrated, this offers a wide array of black-fruit and spicy aromas, including cherry jam, berry, plum, cassis, pepper, oregano, thyme, vanilla, cedar, coconut, and licorice. Two things to note: this wine is really expensive and really worth it. The palate combines massive amounts of tannins with an utter fruit bomb that unfolds for 60-90 seconds on the finish. Cherry, plum, eucalyptus, menthol, cedar, wood smoke, black pepper, coffee, coal tar, damp earth, and I could go on. A show-stopping red. 2032-2040 – MP
