Clos des Lambrays Grand Cru Pinot Noir

Crisp clarity, incredible precision through a blanket of superfine tannins drenched in red cherry, subtle minerality and black fruit. Lingered for minutes.

The infamous 2005 vintage. A vintage that will yield terrific wines but often are still, today, closed and ungiving. This 05 Lambrays is a huge wine with serious structure. It did open up nicely after a lengthy decant. Shows intensity, richness, high acidity and a backbone of power. Ripe black and blue fruits, a bouquet of red flowers, minerals, hints of roasted herbs and sous bois. Tannins remain firm. Lots of midpalate depth and a long and concentrated finish. 05’s are for the grandchildren.

Still needs some time

Beautiful in every way. Perfumed exotic aromas. Sleek and delicious flavors. Drink over the next 10+ years

Beautiful. Can't complex and balanced.

Still young and quite oaky. Showing great potential.

Rose, cherry, hint of earth and dust. Very comfortable to drink, medium+ finish.

What was lacking in aromatics came through on the palate. So pretty and light on its feet.

Bright fruit and florals. Still needs a lot of time.

Delicious.
