2005 Clos Saint-Jean Chateauneuf-du-Pape La Combe des Fous
Tasting Note:
One of the candidates for the wine of the vintage is the extraordinary 2005 Chateauneuf du Pape La Combe des Fous (same blend and elevage). Probably the best cuvee of this wine yet made the wine has a saturated purple color to the rim as well as an extraordinary nose of blackberry blueberry black truffle incense lavender and a hint of graphite. The wine is remarkably concentrated spectacularly pure full-bodied with amazing length of well over a minute. This wine is a _wow wow_ sort of wine a profoundly great Chateauneuf du Pape. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2025+. Source: Wine Advocate
