Initially muted, better after 1-2 hours. Minus for lacking more complexity and deepness. Plus for having a very nice taste and nose was better than many other 2005’s. Colour dark and seems like it was made recently. Could last more years with no problem.

Well balanced; needs an hour to get going; maybe missing something on the nose for even higher score or still may need 2-3 more years; but overall a pleasure to drink

This wine was really come around over the last couple of years! Sweet dark cherry nose with a hint barnyard. Evolved nicely over 45 minutes in glass. Very well structured with tannins that are wonderfully integrated and nice concentration. Rich dark red fruit on palate. Finish decent. In its prime now and probably has 3-5 years left.

Still closed on nose, taste very balanced, fruity, but a little dry finish, medium finish. Like most 2005’s I get the feeling that it is ‘To early’
