Parker about Château Haut-Brion 2005
The mineral-laced 2005 Haut Brion (56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 39% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc) is exquisite. With its elegance and finesse, it is not as powerful as La Mission, but the nobility and complexity of the aromatics, incredible fragrance (subtle smoke and blue, red, and black fruits) that persists in the glass, full-bodied mouthfeel (although very light and delicate on its feet), and incredible length characterize this great Haut-Brion. It is just starting to drink well, and should continue to do so for at least another three decades. It is a tour de force in winemaking, but only 9,000 cases were produced.

Château Haut-Brion 2005
Château Haut-Brion 2005 is an outstanding vintage from the renowned Pessac-Léognan appellation, known for its impressive structure, depth and longevity.
On the nose, this wine unfolds an intense and complex bouquet of ripe dark fruits such as cassis, blackberries, and black cherries, complemented by elegant notes of tobacco, cedarwood, truffle, and a hint of smoke. These aromas are deep and complex, indicative of the exceptional quality and maturity of the 2005 vintage.
On the palate, Château Haut-Brion 2005 displays impressive richness and power. The tannins are ripe, powerful, yet velvety, giving the wine a dense and luxurious texture. The fruit flavors are intense and concentrated, supported by a lively acidity that lends the wine freshness and balance. Nuances of dark chocolate, coffee, licorice, and a mineral note contribute to the complexity and give the wine additional depth.
The finish is long, powerful, and extremely refined, with a remarkable persistence of fruit and spice notes. Château Haut-Brion 2005 is a wine of exceptional class and elegance, offering great drinking pleasure already now, but also possessing the potential for remarkable aging in bottle. A truly majestic experience for lovers of great Bordeaux wines.
