Not nearly as good as I would expect from a premier cru. Not as big and complex as you would expect from a 2005. Maybe more age would help, I don't know. Acid was too prominent.

This bottle was consumed with BBQ'd cedar plank salmon. It went very well with the food. The wine had a solid body with a nice nose. I gave it an 88 because it was lacking something. It's structure was not complete. Don't get me wrong it was a delightful wine. I would buy more from this producer. Drink now or hold another year.

I think this wine may get better after a day of open rest. But still good fresh after corking q
