St Emilion/Pomerol - 2006
Pomerol generally better than St-Emilion. Mid-term keepers.
Not as great as 1998 on the right bank, but close in quality to the admirable 2001 vintage. The wines of the 'côtes' like Ausone, Bel-air, Clos Fourtet and Tertre Roteboeuf were particularly successful, but quality in this large appellation is uneven and generally less consistent than in Pomerol.

Fonbel, from Alain Vauthier of Ausone, generally needs a few years in bottle to show its true character and charm. It is now showing some velvety character, with ripe fruit spiced with 5% petit verdot.

Bourgneuf is very well placed on the central Pomerol plateau and has produced structured, ripe yet fresh-flavoured wine in 2006 of considerable quality.
