Berliquet Vintage:2005 tobacco and a touch of

tobacco and a touch of chimney soot after time

This vintage is perhaps shapelier and more saturated with rose

The richer yet sleeker medium-bodied flavors also possess excellent volume and concentration plus a more refined mouth feel

but all the elements are impeccably balanced throughout

Berliquet Vintage:2005 tobacco and a touch ofThe 2016 Berliquet has quite a high toned bouquet that gradually gains more composure with aeration, the cedar and mint infused red fruit developing subtle tertiary aromas with aeration. The palate is medium bodied with firm but fine boned tannins. This leans toward the drier and more classically styled Saint milion, and it pulls it off well. Very promising. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting. Neal Martin
