Chateau Thibeaud-Maillet 2020 / Pomerol

Olivia Wong — Birthday treat that delivered

9/10

Bought this for my 40th and wow, glad I did. Really rich dark fruit, proper smooth tannins, and a finish that just kept going. At nearly sixty quid it's not an everyday bottle but for a special occasion it's spot on.

Clara Johansson — This finish though

9/10

Not gonna lie, I sat there for a good ten seconds after each sip just enjoying the aftertaste. Smooth as anything with loads of dark berry flavour. 14% ABV sneaks up on you too — had to remind myself to eat something.

Petra Novak — Good but not sure it's worth £58

7/10

The wine shop guy recommended this and it's decent — nice dark fruit, smooth finish, no complaints on the taste. But at this price point I've had bottles that impressed me more. Would maybe buy again on offer.
