This 2005 vintage has gained weight over the years and now expressing peach apricot amongst other citrus fruit aroma and tastes. The color is also thicker and richer than it was in 2010. It has NOT reached its peak yet.

Nov 17th, 2018Second of some 2005 vintages I’ve had over the past few days. While the DP is lively and seems to me to be citrus based, but with a lovely fine bead, it comes second to Bollinger LGA which to my taste just has a bit more going for it.
Having said that, don’t think 05 is a year to hang your hat on. Better before and better to come.
