2005 Soleil, Puisseguin St. Emilion, Bordeaux

This wine is from the Puisseguin St. Emilion appellation just outside of the famed St. Emilion appellation.  It received 89 points from Robert Parker, "Soleil's 2005 displays a gaudy bouquet of black currant fruit and roasted Provencal herbs, a fat, fleshy texture, decent acidity, and sweet tannin."  From Wine Spectator, "Offers gorgeous plum and blackberry character, with hints of flowers.  Full-bodied, with supersilky tannins and a long, caressing finish."  The list price is $34.
