2005 Charmail

This sweet, rich, supple-textured, medium to full-bodied wine exhibits a dense purple color and youthful notes of blackcurrant, licorice and spring flowers. This 2005 is impressively endowed, with moderate tannin still to shed. It should drink well for at least another decade. It is a sleeper of the vintage. Jun 2015, www.robertparker.com
