2005 Chateau Peby Faugeres, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, D-Magnum (3L)

RP 100 ~ A perfect wine in this vintage, the 2005 Peby Faugeres has the classic liqueur of blueberries and spring flowers. Dense purple and full-bodied, with unbelievable richness, this tastes like a great Napa Cab from the Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard, even though there?s no Cabernet Sauvignon in it. This is a sensational wine ? rich, full and multi-dimensional, with a skyscraper-like mid-palate and finish. Kudos to Peby Faugeres for producing one of the perfect wines of the vintage. Drink it in about 3-4 years as well as over the following two decades.
