Description

Bag a bargain - current doz. price at retail price range - £1560.00-2400.00 (£130-200 per bottle)

Wine Society Notes at time of purchase : "With 33% old-vine merlot in the mix, this is a rich hedonistic Ducru in the new style of the property which is so much appreciated in America. Undoubtedly hugely impressive and powerful with much potential, but different from vintages pre-2003. 2015-2030"

Wine Spectator score 95/100 (March2008) :
"Aromas of blackberry, currant and toasty oak, with a hint of spice, lead to a full bodied palate, with plenty of blackberry, chocolate and Indian spice. Balanced, refined and very pretty, with a velvety texture and a long, beautifully textured finish. Best after 2013. 10,000 cases made"

Wine Advocate (May2007) Score 95-97 :
"Another St.-Julien that has put on significant weight since I tasted it last year...extraordinary nose of violets, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries. Full-bodied with fabulous intensity, great acidity, and huge tannins, it is an amazingly vivid, full-bodied wine with monster levels of richness and tannin. Although made in a totally different style, it ranks alongside the monumental 2003."

Robert Parker:
"The 2005 is an exceptionally powerful wine with a dense purple color, superb intensity, and a beautiful, sweet nose of spring flowers, raspberries, blueberries, graphite, and creme de cassis. Full-bodied with fabulous concentration, exceptionally high tannin, good acidity, and massive layers of richness that build incrementally on the palate, this monumental effort is more structured than their outstanding 2003. It may be the finest wine produced at this estate since the 1982 and 1961 Ducrus. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2050"

Berry Bros & Rudd score: 17.5/20
