Potensac's 2005 is a firm, gutsy wine with elegant but very firm tannins and intense earthy flavours. The pure cassis and blackberry nose gives it considerable class, while the extra intensity and structure in 2005 makes it really rather good. Reminiscent of a top St Estèphe, this is ... MORE |

There is a completeness that is evident in 2005 Clarets, and this is what immediately strikes with 2005 Cantemerle. It has bags of fruit, tannin and acidity, all tied up in an impeccably-balanced, polished package. Sweet cassis fruit is accompanied by a spicy edge and a long, fresh ... MORE |

Owned by the Vauthier family of Ch. Ausone fame, this is just as jaw-dropping, in its own way, as its illustrious sibling. This is a proper St Emilion with the Ausone panache shining through. Made from 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, it has a dark inky colour with a delicious Port-like ... MORE |

This is very hedonistic, with bags of lush upfront fruit and easy charm. An attractive perfumed nose is followed by a silky textured palate, with good tannins and concentration.

This may be a modest château (although its selection of old gnarled vines are a good sign) particularly in the context of the great names that surround it, but it is hugely underrated, as the 2005 proves. Known for its power and muscle, in 2005 it has added the communes characteristic ... MORE |
