John Gilman: The 2010 Hosanna is one top Pomerol that seems better in 2010 than in 2009; this is an impressively tight, complex, and refined example of this rather exuberant vintage. The bouquet is deep, classy, and nicely reserved, delivering a blend of dark berries, black cherries, cigar smoke, gravelly soil tones, a touch of espresso, and a stylish framing of new oak. On the palate, the wine is deep, full-bodied, suave, and very refined, with the inherent power of the vintage felt here as great intensity of flavor at the core. The ripely tannic and well-balanced finish delivers excellent grip, and this wine should be absolutely stunning with a decade’s worth of bottle age. 2020–70. 18.5
