2012 Le Prieure

Normally this wine tends to be relatively light, but the 2012 has an inky purple color, lots of black raspberries and spice, a nice fleshy texture and a hedonistic almost fruit-bomb style of St.-Emilion. It is hard to ignore and it’s luscious and extroverted. This medium-bodied St.-Emilion is meant to be drunk now and over the next decade. Apr 2015, www.robertparker.com
