Tasted blind at Southwold ’06 Bordeaux tasting. This has an ethereal, lifted, supremely well defined nose with superb clarity and transparency with aromas of blackberry, Doris plum, dates, minerals, pain grille and cigar box. The palate is full-bodied with sinewy tannin that lends it a rigid backbone, building to a crescendo of dense black fruit laced with allspice. Huge grip and great length, this is a magisterial Saint Emilion.
