Excellent wine from a fantastic vintage. These are two bottles from a case of six I purchased recently. Bottles/labels/capsules in perfect condition.
(From The Wine Cellar Insider): Starting to show secondary notes of tobacco, thyme, plum, cedar and earth on the nose. This has really filled out and improved over the past decade. There is a beautiful purity to the fruit, silky, soft tannins and a fresh, fruit filled finish that tastes as good as it feels. The wine was made from a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot. 94 points - Tasted Jun 28, 2015
Along with the 2000, the 2005 is one of the two greatest d’Issans I have ever tasted. Kudos to proprietor Emmanuel Cruse for creating this beauty. Its dense purple hue is accompanied by aromas of camphor, forest floor, blackberries, cassis, and a hint of spring flowers. Full-bodied with superb richness, purity, texture, and abundant, sweet tannin, it should hit its stride in 3-4 years, and last for 25+. Bravo! Robert Parker - Wine Advocate 01/04/2008
I drank one bottle recently - it's really coming into its peak but I think it'll still improve over the next 10+ years.
