Thursday, April 19, 2012 - None of the reticence for which so many 2005s are currently known, this one was open for business. Great expressive and fragrant nose - very seductive floral and touch of Graves moss. The palate was a disappointment - initial impressions were it lacked fruit and was a bit thin. Surprisingly though, it didn't fall apart on the second night (overnight was in the fridge) and is drinking nicely. Perhaps a disappointment overall given the vintage, but attractive and expressive Bdx at this price point.
