BORDEAUX FUTURES 2005 WINES

The Vintage You Don't Want to Miss

"IS 2005 THE PERFECT VINTAGE?"- Robert Parker
"After 28 years of tasting Bordeaux, 2005 cannot be compared to any previous vintage in my experience. I have never tasted so many extraordinarily rich, concentrated, massive wines yet with such precision, delineation and freshness." Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, Issue 164

2005 BORDEAUX: THE "BEST EVER" VINTAGE! - Peter Morrell
"I have tasted young Bordeaux from barrel for over 40 years and - in my experience - I have never tasted such an exciting vintage as 2005! Reviewing my tasting notes of over 500 wines, I was struck by the fact that I had often noted that this or that particular 2005 was the "best ever" tasted by me for so many chateaux! I remember leaving Bordeaux with the feeling that it was the #1 barrel tasting of my career...and being thoroughly excited by the outstanding quality of so many of the wines that I had tasted."

Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate (WA): 92-95
Proprietor Alain Raynaud has produced a beautifully elegant, noble, racy 2005 Quinault l'Enclos that ranks alongside his 1998, 2000, and 2001. A blend of 77% Merlot, 17% Cabernet Franc, and 6% Cabernet Sauvignon (the average age of the vines is 50 years), it was cropped at 32 hectoliters per hectare, and receives the Burgundian treatment of malolactic in barrel, aging on its lees for 6-10 months, and no filtering at bottling. The inky/blue/purple-tinged 2005 reveals a pure nose of charcoal, spring flowers, sweet raspberries, black cherries, and cassis. The wine is gorgeously textured, medium-bodied, and elegant yet intensely flavored with a power and texture that build on the palate. The tannin is sweet, but noticeable, and the finish is long. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2030.
