Tasting Notes

WA95

A microscopic quantity of 200 cases are produced by Tony Balu, the regisseur of Clos Fourtet, the premier grand cru classe that has made a name for itself over the last few vintages. A blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2005 Pierre de Lune represents decadent St.-Emilion at its finest. This voluptuous, opulent, baroque-styled wine possesses a deep ruby/purple color, an extraordinary nose of black truffles, roasted herbs, incense, chocolate, coffee, blackberries, blueberries, and new saddle leather. It is a complex, modern-styled, enormously endowed, opulent, fleshy offering to enjoy now and over the next two decades.
