2005 Domaine de Beaurenard Chateauneuf-du-Pape Cuvee Boisrenard

Tasting Note:

Dense dark ruby/purple with a nose of pain grille melted licorice espresso chocolate blackberry and cherry the modern-styled 2005 Chateauneuf du Pape Boisrenard has little evidence of spicy oak but is deep in color structured masculine with less flesh than some of the previous top vintages such as 1998 2000 and 2001 but with plenty of power concentration and intensity. This is certainly one of the best Boisrenards since the 2001 and needs a good 4-5 years of bottle age. It should keep for at least two-plus decades. Source: Wine Advocate
