Score 88/100 · Drink 2015-2020, Robert Parker, Jun 2015

From the ever-reliable Francis Courselle, this blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon is a big-time winner for Thieuley. The 2005 has a dense plum/ruby/purple color and loads of smoked cigar tobacco mixed with spice box, earth, ripe black cherries and cassis. What a beauty! This wine, which received about 20% new oak, is lush and heady. Drink it over the next 4-5 years. A sleeper of the vintage.
