2005 Chateau Tertre Roteboeuf, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, Case of 12 btls

2005 Tertre Rotebeouf - Wine Advocate # 176-Apr 2008: A sensational effort, Tertre Roteboeufs 2005, along with the 2000, is one of the most profound wines made by Francois Mitjavile. A dense ruby/purple color is followed by a stunning perfume of sweet black currants, jammy cherries, licorice, and spice. Full-bodied and opulent with high, but remarkably sweet, velvety tannins as well as a stunning texture and a finish that lasts nearly a minute, this prodigious St.-Emilion should be drinkable in 3-4 years, and last for two decades or more. Kudos to the proprietor.
