- The Reiffe's family has had resounding success with all three of their 2005s (Cote de Baleau, Grandes Murailles, and Clos St.Martin). The dense purple-colored Cote de Baleau offers up notes of kirsch liqueur and black fruits in its sweet, concentrated, full-bodied personality. With ripe tannin as well as decent acidity, it will offer lovely drinking over the next 12-15 years.

- Aromas of blackberry, licorice and smoke follow through to a medium-bodied palate, with soft tannins and a fruity finish..89." WS 3/08.
