Bei den Namen, die letztens im Thread auftauchten, La Pointe, VCC und dem höchstbewerten Petrus, habe ich die Kommentare angefügt.
Bemerkenswert die 17 Pkte für den 'KLeinen' Lafleur-Gazin. Hatte ich zuerst mit Jahrgang 2007 im Glas und fand ihn gut.

Another property with a cellar under construction (Jean-Claude Berrouet looked very smart in his personalised hard hat). Harvested 12-22 September, a week earlier than in 2010. 'We were very gentle in 2011', says Olivier Berrouet, since small berries meant that the tannins were actually higher than in 2010 and less ripe (lack of sunshine), so they wanted to extract the tannins earlier, before the alcohol started to climb, leading to the extraction of tougher tannins. The acidity very slightly higher, the alcohol lower. It could evolve to be like the 2001.
Deep glossy dark crimson. Warm, restrained hedgerow fruit, a little biscuity note, a little spicy. Really tangy and so full of energy and life, the fruit sings. Very expressive and the oak firmly in the back seat. Juicy and soft at the front and mid palate, though there is a density under there, a firm foundation, an underground concentration. Very very long and real volume building in the mouth. Builds and builds in the mouth. Caressing and long. (JH)

Ch La Pointe 2011 Pomerol 16 Drink 2016-2026
Sweet, perfumed dark and ripe and chocolatey. Deep dark fruit, not overly ripe with a more savoury freshness on the palate. Big but showing more restraint in the structure than many. (JH)

Vieux Château Certan 2011 Pomerol 18 Drink 2020-2035
Alexandre Thienpont says happily, 'De retour a Bordeaux' – back to Bordeaux after the last two atypical vintages, clearly delighted with the way Cabernet Franc has performed this year. He has included 28% in 2011 compared with 5-6% in 2009 and 2010. It's a variety that copes quite well with lack of water but not with extreme heat.
Rich purple crimson. Camomile (though I am not sure I would have spotted this if Alexandre hadn't mentioned it) plus fine dark fruit and graphite freshness. Closed on the nose but scented on the palate. Very fine tannins. Crunchy. Fresh and long. Great purity and line and length. Absolutely lovely. (JH) 13.6%
