What Are the Critics
Saying?
The best 2005s are simply
sublime Burgundies that will
be capable of being
exceptionally long-lived. Each
level of the Burgundian
hierarchy transcends its
usual quality category and
ascends to the one directly
above...the best wines will
easily see 50 years in fine
shape. 2005 is quite simply
the best top to bottom
vintage that I have ever
seen, period, full stop. It is a
brilliant vintage with
virtually nothing to
dislike...but don't miss the
best wines of the vintage or
you will I believe live to
regret it." Allen Meadows Burghound.com
When are They Coming?
We are expecting Domaine Henri Boillot
to arrive in October & the Lucien Le
Moine to arrive in late November.

2005 Puligny-Montrachet
Clos de la Mouchere 1er
Cru: "(from 60 year old vines
and the vineyard is a
whopping 4ha monopole
within Perrières) Not
surprisingly, this closely
resembles the Perrières
aromatically though there is
just enough extra ripeness
where hints of orchard fruit
creep into the mix and
continue onto the generous
and sappy medium-full flavors
that offer a beguiling texture
and the same pungent
minerality on the balanced and
powerful finish. This really
packs a punch as the intensity
is almost painful and the
underlying sense of tension
and vibrancy is striking. " (BH

2005 Meursault
“Genevrières”: "Here the
nose is very fresh and spicy
with a seductive nose of
hazelnut and citrus, especially
lemon, that leads to vibrant
and notably powerful flavors
that manage to bring both
excellent volume but with a
sense of finesse as well, all
wrapped in a wonderfully
intense and explosive finish.
Really good juice here." (BH

2005 Corton Blanc: "Saouma
noted that there was a small
percentage of pinot blanc in
the vineyard. A moderately
exotic fruit nose offers good
freshness and concentration if
not elegance though the
borderline massive flavors are
powerful, dense and mouth
coating and this is very much
consistent with a big Corton
red as there is plenty of muscle
here. This is an interesting
wine that should offer solid
cellaring potential." (BH 9093)/2012+ Allen Meadows Burghound.com
