Petrus Pomerol 2005
$15,999.99
This vintage greets the palate with a rich and opulent texture, characterized by velvety tannins and vibrant acidity. Ripe fruit flavors dominate, with intense notes of blackberry compote, cassis, and dark plum tantalizing the taste buds. The wine exhibits remarkable depth and concentration, with layers of complexity revealing themselves with each sip. Subtle hints of vanilla, baking spices, and dark chocolate add further dimension, while a touch of minerality provides structure and finesse. The wine culminates in a long, lingering finish, marked by notes of espresso, leather, and a lingering sense of fruit purity.

The Nebbiolo that comes off this property is some of the best in La Morra. Even in challenging vintages the Monfalletto terroir yields Nebbiolo that is both powerful and supple. Insiders know that this is one of the best terroirs in Barolo.
95 Points, Robert Parker: "The house style prizes muscle and brawn in this vintage that lends itself handily to these qualities. Pressed cherry and blackberry cede to licorice, cured tobacco and iron ore."
94 Points, Wine Spectator: "A plump, cherry-, raspberry- and tar-flavored red, showing accents of mineral, tobacco and eucalyptus, with a swath of solid tannins guarding the finish. Balanced and long, this should come around soon."
94 Points, James Suckling: "Attractive aromas of black cherry with strawberry and hints of vanilla and cedar. Some sandalwood. Medium body. Ultra-fine tannins integrate beautifully into the wine. Plenty of fruit flavors and length. Juicy."
