Full mouthful full of extract but without enough zest. A bit boring, I’m afraid.
Lovely fresh fruit. Pure citrus flavours. Palate full, round and zesty. Drink 2008-2016.
Another excellent vintage for Bordeaux's dry whites, which tend to be vastly underrated and exceptionally long-lived (30-40 years in some cases). The 2005s possess crisp acidity as well as serious weight, richness, and texture. Space constraints did not allow full tasting notes, but this is one of the top 2005 dry white Bordeaux wines.
