    Possibly the best Petit Village under Christian Sealy's stewardship. A reserved but wonderfullybalanced wine with masses of finesse and refinement supported by sweet ripe fruit flavours. A very complete Pomerol style. DR

  • Neal Martin, February 2013, Score: 91

    The Petit Village has a rather strict bouquet - very linear - with scents of briary, sous-bois and a hint of dried orange peel. The palate is well balanced with a fleshy entry infused with Asian spice, white pepper and a touch of sea salt. This is a complex, assertive Petit Village that coats the mouth, although I suspect it will develop more finesse with time on the finish.

  • Robert Parker, February 2013, Score: 91

    A very strong effort from Petit Village, the 2010 is the finest effort in years. Dark plum with hints of mocha, caramel, sweet currants and cherries, this opulent, savory, and explosive full-bodied wine already is accessible and evolved. Anticipated maturity: now- 2025.

  • Robert Parker, May 2011, Score: 90-92

    The finest wine from this estate since their glorious 1982, the 2010 Petit Village possesses aromas of licorice, black cherries, cassis, truffles and oak. Powerful and deep with a corpulent texture, a silky mouthfeel and a wonderful lushness, it will be drinkable in 2-3 years and last for 15 or more. Drink: 2013 - 2028

  • Jancis Robinson, April 2011, Score: 16.5

    This has a lot more breadth than most of the Derenoncourt wines I have just been tasting. Lightly minty. Succulent and pleasing. Really pretty good with great balance. I look forward to tasting this blind under UGC auspices. Relatively subtle. Though still relatively tough on the end. Tasted blind 6 Apr: Blueish crimson. Not that intense a colour. Limits of ripeness and a suggestion of black cherries on the nose. Very sweet and just a little bit lacking in freshness and life. Big and bold but not that refreshing or intriguing. Astringent finish. (Score: 16 18-26) Tasted at Pichon Longueville 7 Apr: ‘As part of our efforts to spruce things up here we re-identified Cabernet Sauvignon as Cabernet Franc.' Very dense and rich. Sweet but a bit austere onthe end. Not much palate breadth. (Score: 16.5 17-26) Drink 2016-2028

Château Petit Village is reminiscent of a thoroughbred horse. Not only does it have excellent pedigree finely bordering Vieux Château Certan, Certan de May and La Conseillante, but it has been finely groomed by skillful hands over the years - first by Bruno Prats, the dynamic former owner of Cos d'Estournel, followed by AXA Millésimes with Jean-Michel Cazes (of Lynch Bages) and then with the ever-so efficient Christian Seel...Read more

Region

Pomerol

The small sub-region of Pomerol is situated north-east of the industrious city of Libourne. Pomerol's soils are predominately iron-rich clay with a smattering of gravel that produce wines with extraordinary power and depth. As a result of this clay-dominance, it has the highest percentage of Merlot planted in all of Bordeaux. Certain châteaux are produced exclusively from this grape, but most incorporate smaller quantities of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc as well. Despite its hefty (if not exclusive) proportion of Merlot, many people think of wines from this region as separate entities. As one wine aficionado stated recently, "It's not Merlot. It's Pomerol." Despite the region's small size, Pomerol contains some of the world's most sought after (and expensive) wines including Pétrus, Le Pin, Lafleur, l'Evangile and Vieux Château Certan. Unlike other Bordelais subregions, there is no system of classification. The châteaux are traded on reputation alone.
