2005 Clos St Martin St Emilion Red Blend
Condition:
This tiny jewel (one of St.-Emilion's smallest vineyards) is reminiscent of Pomerol's renowned estate, Lafleur. Concentrated sweet black cherry fruit aromas interwoven with whiffs of damp soil, wet rocks, and flowers jump from the glass of this enormously concentrated, broodingly backward, inky purple 2005. It exhibits fabulous definition and freshness as well as body and structure. Forget it for 10 years, and drink it over the following 20-25. RP
