Interesting. I tasted over 300 wines en primeur and thought that 2006 was
actually excellent in Pomerol with Saint Emilion being more irregular.

It might become an interesting and under the radar vintage for Pomerol
specially. Sort of a 2001 which gave very good wines that were not hunted
by hordes of point drinkers.
