La Fleur Morange 2005 is a full-bodied, Merlot-based red wine from the St-Emilion appellation of Bordeaux. La Fleur Morange is a highly regarded garagiste winery boasting a modest holding of old vines in St Pey d`Armens. The ripe (15% alcohol) 2005 from this producer is a blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc. "This wine has turned out beautifully from bottle, far superior to the impressive barrel samples! Sadly, production is limited to a mere 350 cases. Dense purple to the rim, with a superb bouquet of acacia flowers, blueberries, black currants, and crushed rocks, the wine’s oak component is completely obscured by the wealth of fruit and overall rich, concentrated style. As I have indicated in the past, this blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc emerges from a vineyard averaging 100 years of age. Yields are a tiny 21 hectolitres per hectare. This exquisite St.-Emilion should be accessible in 5-7 years, and last for 25 or more. Kudos to the brilliant oenologist, Claude Gros, who produced this masterpiece." Robert Parker, 2008
