Note di degustazione
The 2005 Château Beausejour (Duffau-Lagarrosse) is beautiful, and I think is a step up over the Château’s 2001. A healthy ruby/plum hue, with no sense of lightening, is followed by a beautiful perfume of red and black fruits, spice-box, tobacco, and white truffle-like nuance. With the vintage’s dense, focused, inward style, it has notable freshness, fine tannins, and a great finish. It’s a beautiful, powerful, yet elegant expression of the fabulous terroir. Enjoy bottles anytime over the coming 15 years.

Hints of bricking around the edges of the wine, still firm ruby in the core. Sandalwood, cedar, liquorice and fennel aromatics, followed by gentle autumnal fruit, this has complexity and effortless charm. So much pleasure here, and you feel it's just at the very beginning of its drinking crescendo. A masterclass in limestone, just begging to be paired with food. Far less focused and concentrated than you would find this wine today, and at this point it was four years away from Nicolas Thienpont arriving as director, but the power of the terroir shines through.
Tasted blind. Bright healthy crimson. Very creamy, flattering nose with good integration already. Very 2005 in terms of tannic charge. The fruit is not as intense as in some examples. But it’s a very classic style. (JR)
