clos les lunelles 2005

at dim steakhouse

decanted carefully for 1 hour

purple and black ink

with enticing cassis and blueberry nose

well balanced wine

with prominent ridges of tannin

held by creamy vanilla fog

drifting smoothly on a glassy, dark fruit and citrus sea

long finish with bits of chocolate

and strong sweet-sour-bitter

like south pacific fare

all more elegant between bits of steak.
