Perhaps the finest offering yet from Philippe Casteja's small Domaine de l'Eglise, the Merlot-dominated, deep purple-hued 2005 exhibits plum, anise, mocha, and chocolate notes. Full-bodied and plush, with decent acidity, high but sweet tannin, and a touch of smoky oak, this full-throttle Pomerol can be drunk over the next 20+ years.
