93 points Allen Meadows - Burghound

 This is a massive wine of immense proportions but it's also a very generously oaked wine that has ample toast, vanilla and wood spice yet as much oak as there is here, it can't hide the elegance and purity of the ripe orchard fruit that has exactly the same character on the highly toasted but wonderfully deep full-bodied flavors underpinned by ripe citrus infused acidity and huge length.

Vintage 2005

2005 VINTAGE in Burgundy / Hopes made way for certainty.

This is still very closed and youthful. Marvelous energy and power. Very, very concentrated nose. Full body. Very, very rich and almost solid on the palate at present. Real depth and dimension here. Potentially excellent.
