A huge wine with loads of fruit and a 30+ second finish; mouthfilling texture, demands attention. A few more years in bottle and this could be another '03 Aieul! Do you find this review helpful?

Decanted for several hours prior to drinking. A huge nose of melted graphite, charcoal, and blackberry liqueur. Almost like a Grenock Creek in scale for its nose. On the palate, it had great density and structure, but not seeming too brawny. Like a finely tuned athlete on full throttle this wine. Over time it rounded out to add a bit of rasberry fruit to its otherwise black hole abbyss of dark berries. Truly a massive, very well balanced wine, that has me completely enamored (as someone who tends not to like wooded CdP). I wil lhide the rest of my bottles for at least 5 (probably ten) more years. Brilliant. 95+pts Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comment

Color is red to light purple. Nose was a little restrained at this stage with blackberry, blueberry, graphite, herbs, and a touch of spice. On the palate there was blackberry, lavender, meat, tobacco leaf, white pepper. The finish is long, the mouthwatering acidity was nice and the tannins were high quality, the mouthfeel was exceptional, and there is nice balance overall to this wine that is very well made and has decades to go. What a treat. Hold. 50+5+12+19+9 Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comment

Decanted 5 hours and then it was still tight as a drum. Only when we had serious food alongside, was it somewhat approachable. Liquorice, black currant, pepper, tobacco, chocolate etc. Long aftertaste. Lots of good tannins. Had the 2006 not too long ago, and that was more approachable than the 05. This shall be interesting to follow. Love this wine... Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comment

Couleur sombre, nez de viande crue avec du fruit noir, un peu de moka, nez qui évoque la syrah (??). Très belle texture, bonne fraicheur, un vin dense et tendu, concentré, d’une grande classe. Le plus concentré et jeune. Wow! Identifié comme le 2005. 94 pts Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comment

Alkoholen var kun merkbar den første halve timen og integrerte seg fint etter det. Dyp mørk rød med nesten svart kjerne. Aroma av lakris, røyk, blåbær, bjørnebær, kirsebær, "krydderbod", lær, mm. I munnen fyldig uten å bli for mye, god balanse, god lengde med merkbare tanniner i finish. Synes denne begynner å bli fint moden nå, men vil nok utvikle seg positivt i 5 år til og holde fint i 10 etter det. Fungerte meget godt til entrecote av lam med spisskummen/koriander og Coscos til.

Same on the palate with beautiful spiciness, sweet licorice and a beautiful balance between acidity and sweetness. Soft and round tannin with still a beautiful bite.

On the palate also a lot of black as well as red forest fruits, hidden spices, and a lot of good sweetness and acidity in a beautiful balance. A lot of bitterness. Concentrated and refined wine which needs at least another 3 - 4 years and will offer beautiful drinking much longer. 93+ 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comment
Red	2005 Domaine de la Mordorée Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée de la Reine des Bois Red Rhone Blend more	Options Post a Comment View MayValley's profile Report Issue 5/8/2013 - MayValley wrote: 93 points Nose of blueberries, cocoa powder, spices, yoghurt and a hint of acetone. The palate was full bodied with blue fruit and also a hint of red cherry fruit and licorice. Very tannic. Also fine acidity. This wine really has a lot of dry extract. While there is still a lot of tannic structure, the fruit however seems to be aproaching maturity, so i am not sure about it's aging potential, but it should last for 5-10 more years. 3 people found this helpful, do you?

Ninty minutes minimum and 2 hours would be ideal. Deep, robust and willing to give you its essence of dark fruit, tar and bramble. This dark brooding wine will cellar another decade, however its reaching its prime and will strut it stuff. Enjoy! Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comment

Decanted 2-3 hours prior to serving. Dark red in color. Herbs , (particularly thyme), spices and black fruit on the nose. In the mouth, boysenberries, licorice black pepper and that typical CdP garrigue. Delicious wine with a good finish. Perhaps not as good as the wonderful 1998 version of this I had a few years ago, but an excellent wine nonetheless. Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comment

La bouche est puissante, mais sans excès, l’attaque montre un fruit mûr, concentré, avec une texture veloutée, une belle fraîcheur. Le vin a la structure solide du millésime, on est à la limite de l’extraction juste, mais l’équilibre y est et les tanins ne sont pas astringents. Il a un bon fruit, tout en gardant la mâche et le côté sérieux du millésime. Pas hédoniste, mais d’une belle profondeur. 92 pts Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comment

I find bottle variation, particularly prevalent in the Rhône, a source of frustration and occasional joy. Perhaps the above is part of the reason why we all love wine i.e. we secretly enjoy the uncertainty This bottle was terrific and, whilst still a step behind the 07, it is classic Cndp on the nose and on the palate. Unmistakably from its terroir. It is unsubtle and quite powerful and full of earth, cherries, raspberries with a long finish. I sincerely hope the rest of the case are like this bottle and not the previous bottle. Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comment

Aroma / bouquet: Een opvallend 'donker' bouquet met sterk tertiaire aroma's. Stoere Ch9dP, donker fruit, zoetige kruiderij, zacht zoete drop. Smaak / Afdronk: De indruk in de mond is die van een boterzachte wijn. Vervolgens toont de wijn haar meer stoere en donkere karakter. Boordevol prachtig gerijpte tannines met een prettig en subtiel drogend bittertje in de finale. Algemeen / potentieel: Wat mij betreft is deze wijn op dit moment veel dichter bij haar uiterste drinkbaarheidsdatum dan WA aangeeft. Nu drinken en zeker niet laten liggen tot na 2020. 50 + Kleur: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 12 + Smaak / Afdronk: 17 + Algemeen / potentieel: 8 = 92/100 Color: Deep dark red, strikingly dark for a Ch9dP. Aroma / bouquet: A striking 'dark' bouquet with strong tertiary aromas. Tough Ch9dP, dark fruit, sweetish condiment, soft sweet licorice. Taste / Finish: The impression on the palate is that of a buttery soft wine. Then the wine shows its more tough and dark character. Full of beautifully matured tannins with a pleasant and subtle drying bitter in the final. General / Potential: As far as I'm concerned, this wine is currently much closer to its expiration date than WA indicates. Drink now and don't leave it until after 2020. 50 + Color: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 12 + Taste / Finish: 17 + General / potential: 8 = 92/100 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1)

I'm used to MRDB bring over the top, but this wine is dark ruby in color, not black, of normal viscosity, not oily. Nose is fragrant with floral notes, black raspberries, melted tar, violets. Flavorful yet not over extracted, with good acidity and soft tannins. Long, mineral driven finish. Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comment
