2005 Chateau Luchey-Halde, Pessac-Leognan, Bordeaux
The third wine, the 2005 Luchey-Halde, received 92 points from Robert Parker: "One of the few remaining vineyards within the city limits of Merignac, this high-class blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot (and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot) exhibits juicy, sweet, smoky notes of berries, cranberries, herbs and minerals. Richly fruity with sweet tannin as well as a round, gentle finish, it should be drunk during its first 5-7 years of life." The list price is $28.
