Château La Pointe 2011 is a refined Pomerol offering, sourced from one of the largest estates in the region, spanning 23 hectares of Merlot and Cabernet Franc vines. The 2011 vintage is predominantly Merlot 84% with a 16% of Cabernet Franc. This wine reveals a nose of dark fruits blackberry, black cherry, and wild blueberry enhanced by subtle floral notes of violet. The palate is structured yet elegant, with smooth, velvety tannins and a fine balance of fruit intensity and freshness. The finish is long and vibrant, showcasing the estate’s signature harmony and finesse.

Vinous
The 2011 La Pointe has a savory, maybe slightly bretty bouquet that lacks the freshness of its peers, yet I find its animally nature quite appealing. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannins, dry and slightly astringent, white pepper and clove towards the finish. Not bad, though not exactly memorable. Tasted blind at the annual 10-Year-On tasting.
