Chateau Haut-Bergey Pessac-Leognan 2005

$5999

Nearly two decades of graceful aging have softened this 2005 Graves blend into a refined expression of southern Médoc terroir. Forest floor, wet stone, and charcoal frame deep currents of blackcurrant and cherry, while the palate reveals remarkable brightness and focus with dried cherries, orange peel, and mineral precision. Full-bodied yet harmonious, with sweet tannins and opulent depth.

Antonio Galloni

90 points

"Good full, deep red. Superripe aromas of redcurrant, plum, cherry, flowers and beefsteak tomato. Sweet, fat and full, but less wild and expressive today than the 2006. Distinct notes of milk chocolate and roasted berries. The major tannins currently cut off the wine's fruit." —Stephen Tanzer

Robert Parker

90 points

"Charcoal, espresso roast, blackcurrants and spice are all present in this medium-bodied, nicely concentrated, relatively evolved and precocious Haut-Bergey, which is just now attaining its plateau of maturity. Soft tannins and an attractive plushness are followed by a wine capable of drinking well for another decade or more." —Robert M. Parker, Jr.

Wine Spectator

91 points

"Aromas of mineral, blackberry and licorice lead to a full body, with lots of racy tannins and a long, flavorful finish. There's plenty of character, with a polished, refined style, yet tannic."

More about Chateau Haut-Bergey

Haut Bergey is a storied Chateau in Pessac-Leognan that had fallen into some disrepair until Sylviane Garcin-Cathiard purchased it in 1991 and begin modernizing the property. Like much of Graves (the larger AOC surrounding Pessac-Leognan) the vineyard is planted almost evenly to Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.
