Description

Bag a bargain - current doz. price at retail price range - £3390.00-4602.00 (£565-767 per bottle)

Wine Society Notes at time of purchase : "A sensational result that seems to have everything for a truly great wine. Bloom, perfume, sweet fruit, extract, hints of graphite, olives, and a superb pure aftertaste that lingers on the palate. 2017-2035"

Wine Spectator score 95-100 (June2006)
Wine Spectator scors 100 (Mar2008) :
"This is incredible on the nose, showing coffee cake, blackberry, floral, coffee bean, and vanilla bean, with Chinese spices. A very complex, full bodied red, with seamless, hyperpolished tannins that caress every millimeter of the palate. Lasts for minutes. So beautifully balanced, I'm left speechless. Is it even better than the 1989? Best after 2017. 100"

Wine Advocate (May2007)
"... While almost primordial in its denseness, richness, and body, it retains its elegance and surreal nose of flowers, cherries, pain grille, crushed rocks, flowers, and ripe fruit. Powerful, dense, and in need of a decade of cellaring, this will be a 30 to 40-year Haut-Brion that should end up being a modern day version of the 1955….enormously impressive, and is a treat to taste...96-100" WA 5/07

Robert Parker 98-100/100
"Another profound effort from Haut-Brion, the 2005 (a blend of 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 39% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc) has bulked up to the point that it is fair to compare it to the great successes of 1989, 1990, 1995, 1996, 1998, and 2000... noble bouquet of blue and red fruits interwoven with wet stones, unsmoked cigar tobacco, scorched earth, and spring flowers. The wine is full-bodied and complex as well as exceptionally elegant with laser-like precision. The tannins are still serious and substantial, and in that sense, this is a completely different style of Haut-Brion than the opulent, silky-textured 1989 and 1990; it comes across as an improved, more concentrated and structured version of the 1995 or 1998. Patience will be required for this stunner."

Berry Bros & Rudd - "An intoxicating bouquet of sun-kissed red and black cherries abounds with hints of roasted coffee bean and mocha. This is a brooding, sleeping giant of a wine with monumental levels of fruit but an exquisitely fine demeanour. Intense and mouthfilling with wonderful length, it has all the classic earthy mineral Haut Brion richness that you would expect.This is power and elegance par excellence."
