Vintage 2005

2005 VINTAGE in Burgundy / Hopes made way for certainty.

2005 promises to produce outstanding whites, with elegance and opulence beyond the norm, and superb, seductive and well-structured red wines.

Youthful and Sweet tannins

Written Notes

Medium intense ruby colour. Intense and bit closed nose shows smokiness, hints of licorice root, ripe wild strawberries, blueberries and violets. Medium-bodied, intense, vivid and subtle palate with very refined tannins. Great balance and harmony. Long and lingering finish. This wine will age beautifully next 5-10 years but delivers pleasure already now. Decant for 2 hours. – JL 93p (March 2024)

2005 Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru Clos de la Marechale Open and intense nose with very ripe but cool dark berry fruit, spices, led pencil and earthy notes. Completely undeveloped but has lots of layers and has, of course, much more to give. Full bodied and fruity attack with very ripe, cool dark fruit, balsamic notes, game meat and earthy notes that seamlessly continues through the very smooth mid-palate into a long finish which ads a refreshing acidity and a nice counterpoint to the ripe fruit. Lovely texture and length but need a few years to develop and grow a personality. Drink 2017-2028 92p

Bright ruby. Spoiled nose by detergents, smelling only of soap first. New wine was poured and layers of fruit, scented tones, floral and touch of leather. Fresh acidity, elegant palate, ripe feel, ripe tannins, lovely balance, rounded texture, long.
