A stunning sleeper of the vintage, this blend of 50% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 5% Petit Verdot from the Onclin family is a homerun. It got a big "Wow" from me, given its blueberry and blackberry fruit, hints of camphor and charcoal, superb texture, full-bodied mouth-feel and stunningly long finish. A major over-achiever in 2010, this wine should drink well for 15 or more years.

From a 30-acre property next to Château Chasse-Spleen, this 2010 is solid, dark and rich, typical of the vintage. There is a veneer of smooth new wood that opens to reveal firm, solid tannins. This is big, structured and ready for long-term aging.

Creamy-textured, but not lush, as a charcoal thread keeps the enticing plum sauce, blackberry coulis and steeped currant notes from being too flattering. A singed cedar note holds the finish together, while an alluring smoky edge lingers. Drink now through 2022. -JM
