Chateau Petit Bocq 2005

Member Review by zufrieden:

Lots of sweet black licorice, blackberry and cedar box on the nose, and it opened up quite quickly upon cork removal; the Cabernet element seems quite prominent. On entry, the wine has a smooth, creamy texture with dissipating tannin; there is wet earth mixed with black currant on the palate with a medium length. An excellent wine ready now, but may keep for several more years. 89 points.

Château Petit Bocq:

There was nothing to suggest either that our family, who were originally from Belgium, would one day become gentlemen farmers or that I myself would one day give up my microscope (I was a specialist doctor) and allow myself to fall in love with winegrowing. As you come to the end of the “Chemin de Bocq”, a path running through the hamlet of Marbuzet, you get a first glimpse of the vines. There are barely twelve thousand feet, almost exclusively “Merlot Noir” with the roots thriving on the clayey land whilst the leaves are lulled by a gentle breeze cooled by the nearby river.
