February 18, 2024 - Full, plush NSG, rich, cossetting rather than complex.

Overall very harmonious with respectable finish. A bit one-dimensional however with a somewhat inscrutable fruit profile which is hard to pin down. One feels an elite 1er Cru NSG in a year like 05 ought to show more. Probably just starting to come out of its shell and deserves another 5+ years of cellar time

December 3, 2023 - Opened for 90 minutes prior to serving. Didn’t decant. Still so much fruit! Dense and broad but very much in balance. Would argue that this is at peak. Lots of sediment.

November 22, 2023 - others liked this a LOT more than I did... feels like this is a great bottle of wine but like many many '05's I don't think this is anywhere near ready... if I was smart I'd bury all the '05's and not get them out for another 15 years at least

April 15, 2022 - Wow! This 2005 was absolutely stunning from the get-go. First of all I love Cailles from Chevillon! My first thoughts… Are 2005s coming around? I do not know but this NSG is bad ass. This Is crunchy with gorgeous red fruit and mineral, with a whole cluster feel (I do not know the regimen at all). It is 17 years young and not saying “oak” at all. I cannot get over the pure red berry fruit and myriad spices from a bakers cupboard, and thoughts of dusty clay and granite mineral.
