St. Emilion, Bordeaux
"This gorgeous, exotic, spicy St.-Emilion offers aromas and flavors of plum liqueur, figs, chocolate, and sweet black cherries as well as currants. With low acidity, tremendous opulence, and a sensual tactile impression, it is best consumed during its first decade of life. Sadly, production is limited for this garagiste operation." - Rated 92, Robert Parker
"Very dark and reserved on the nose, but there's a lovely undertone of ripe black fruit, damsons and spicy oak just waiting to blossom. Full-bodied, with lots of fruit and oak flavors, firm young tannins and a long finish. Best after 2007. 330 cases made. –JS" - Rated 91, Wine Spectator
