Rouget 2009 is a full-bodied Right Bank Bordeaux wine from the Pomerol appellation, produced by the Rouget family, whose estate has been crafting wines since the 18th century. This vintage presents an aromatic profile featuring dark fruit, particularly blackberry and plum, mingled with subtle earthy undertones. The palate showcases an interplay of medium-bodied structure and fine tannins, complemented by notes of cedar and graphite. The wine maintains a balanced acidity, leading to a measured finish with echoes of dark herbs and spice, indicative of its age-worthy potential.
