Mommesin, Clos de Tart 2005

The Clos de Tart 2005 is the best wine I have tasted from this producer – I tasted it first 5 years ago, and while it still is young it has martured quite a bit. The nose offer layers of red and dark fruit – ripe, rich and generous – with the oak now fully integrated. On the palate robust yet not without refinement – layered fruit – with considerable length. Nicely balance with a vibrant underlying minerality. This does deliver the goods – need 5 to 10 years more to unfold the full potential.
