La Confession, St. Emilion 2005

Saturated purple/red.

Vinturi - considerable oak influence is nevertheless very sexy - smoke, grilled meat, grilled herbs, cinnamon, hazelnut, black cherry nose.

Round, plush middle-weight, with acid/tannin working in slowly from the sides of the mouth. This is PFG already. Very easily enjoyed right now with dead animal/rich sauce stuff. Nice, perfumed, finishing flavors. This should really rock in another 3-5 years.


$40? Can't remember.
