Borie De Maurel Esprit d'Automne Minervois 2006

This wine was one of my star reds from 2007, and was keen to try the new vintage. Opened to a rich bouquet of dark berry fruits, mint, black pepper and cumin. On the palate more berries over furry tannins and dry savoury finish. Quite similar to the 2005, although perhaps a little younger and a touch sharper in acidity. I still do love this wine, rustic yet sofisticated with a harmonic combination of flavours. Now under screwcap.
50+4+13+17+8 = 92/100
