Wow wine. Orange blossom on the backside. Super good, very floral. Femine for drouhin. Tropical, guava-esce.

Not the best showing of this bottle. Initially it was somewhat of a dud lacking vibrancy and missing any sort of notable fruit or terroir expression. Strangely came around after 2 hours in the decanter with significantly increased fruit intensity, depth and brightness. A pleasant surprise by the end of the night in comparison to my first impression but still just not the best bottle. I believe there was a storage issue at one point in its life. Can’t all be winners! 🙃

A baby. Pure fruit, raspberry, stemmy, acid made me pucker, somebody said hot, I didn't find it to be, but it's not a little, thin, wine. Intense but not over extracted. The Drouhin 05's feel like they'll age forever. Great wine

Wonderful old Burg! Earthy aromas and flavors lifted by fruit and acid. Wish I had some in my cellar as there are still years of enjoyment with this wine!
