Summary

Sainte Colombe Côtes de Castillon 2005 is a distinguished red Bordeaux blend from the limestone-clay plateau of Sainte-Colombe, adjacent to Saint-Émilion. This wine, primarily composed of Merlot and complemented by Cabernet, benefits from the expertise of Gérard Perse and consulting from Michel Rolland. The 2005 vintage is noted for its ripe fruit character balanced by a firm structure. Tasting notes reveal layers of black plum, cassis, and licorice, evolving into complex hints of truffle, tobacco, and dried flowers. This well-crafted wine offers elegance and depth, showcasing the classic attributes of the Right Bank region. A decanting is recommended to enhance its profile.
