2008 - Epicurea de Chateau Martinat Cotes de Bourg

"Like many of the wines for this report, I had this on three separate occasions, and while it was terrific, I have a slight reservation about sample variability. However, it looks like a sleeper of the vintage, offering low yields, a dense ruby/purple color, sweet tannins, lots of juicy blackberry and currant fruit along with hints of chocolate and spice. It should drink nicely for 5-years." -The Wine Advocate, 88-90 pts.
