Description

The Clos des Papes 2005 Chateauneuf du Pape was nominated "Wine of the year" by Wine Spectator,when it was awarded first place in their Top 100 wines of 2007.

"The 2005 Clos des Papes Chateauneuf du Pape has a deep ruby/purple color,identical alcohol to the 2006,and the same ph,but it is a much more tannic wine and the acids seem slightly more elevated,even though the analysis says they are not.A complex nose of resiny pine forest notes,intermixed with black raspberry,sweet kirsch,licorice,and lavender jumps from the glass of this deep ruby/purple-colored wine.Full-bodied,powerful,rich,and tannic,this wine begs for 4-5 years of bottle age and should keep for 25+ years.In short,you can't go wrong with either of these vintages,although the 2006 will provide more up-front charm,and the window for drinking it will be just as long as the 2005.Patience will be required for the 2005.This remains one of the irrefutable reference point estates for traditional Chateauneuf du Pape".
(95 Points).

Robert Parker. (The Wine Advocate. #173. October 2007).


"The 2005 Clos des Papes is for me the best of the recent trio of classics from the 2005,2004 and 2003 vintages.It combines terrific fruit with superb structure,and should rival the 1990 when it reaches maturity.It's really tight now,but it's packed with dark fig,currant espresso,licorice and chocolate notes.Superfleshy,but seriously structured,there's layer after layer of sweet spice,fruit,and minerality pumping through the finish,with lots of latent depth and power.Far more backward than the 2003 and 2004 on release,but considering this typically puts on weight as it ages,it should be a monster when it reaches its peak.Best from 2009 through 2030".
