Yea, this was the 2005 Ch. St. Jean Cinq Cepages that I thought about bringing to MoCool but glad I did not. Very dark purple/black in color with NO bricking at the edges, it was still very primary with lots of mellow plum flavors and enough tannins to balance. Over 2 hrs. the tannins did recede a bit but this wine could go another decade probably. It may not improve or develop any great tertiary flavors as it seemed a bit "simple". I have never been impressed with this wine and given that this is my last bottle, will not buy again.
