„Abundant sweet cherry and truffle, new saddle leather and spice box notes are present in this medium to full-bodied, supple-textured, silky Pomerol. It is less concentrated than some of the big boys such as Gazin, Le Gay, L’Evangile and Certan de May, but it is an elegant, finesse style of wine to drink over the next 10-15 years.“

„Served at a mini-vertical at the chateau, the 2005 La Fleur-Petrus has a glorious bouquet with intense red and black fruit, black truffle, dried petals, a touch of cured meat – like popping into a Tuscan delicatessen with the floor sprinkled in sawdust. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and very good weight. It is almost understated on the entry, with a fine thread of acidity. There are notes of spicebox, white pepper and ever a faint hint of red pepper towards the finish that is long and graceful – the kind of wine you really desire to linger in the mouth and choose not to outstay its welcome. Drink 2016-2030.“

„Tasted single blind at Southwold. A superb showing for this oft-overlooked Pomerol. It appears to have closed down on the nose, introverted black berries, loganberry, graphite and sous-bois, but it seems so natural with superb definition. Medium-bodied, full of spicy cranberry and blackberry fruit; becoming earthy, almost animally with black pepper towards the finish. Wonderful elegance and poise - quintessential Pomerol in all its unfettered glory! Drink 2012-2025+“

„As one might expect from the Moueix family, this is a classic, traditionally styled Bordeaux exhibiting a deep ruby color, medium body, and a sweet perfume of licorice and kirsch that are reminiscent of a Grenache-based wine from the southern Rhone. However, its elegance, freshness, and high but sweet tannin are unmistakably Bordeaux in style. This 2005 should round into shape in 5-8 years, and keep for a minimum of two decades.“

„This beautiful wine is aptly named. Made in a quintessentially elegant style, with layers of black currant and cherry fruit intermixed with plum, licorice, and vanillin characteristics, medium to full body, sweet tannin, good weight and depth, and no hard edges, this impressive Pomerol should be drinkable in 5-7 years, and keep for 20-25.“

„Made in Pomerol’s quintessentially elegant style, this 2005 reveals pure raspberry and cherry fruit intermixed with spice box, cedar, and licorice. With superb purity, medium body, and stunning concentration, 3-4 years of cellaring will be beneficial, and it should last for 15+.“

„Having tasted a stunning 1964 just days before, how would the 2005 taste? Bloody gorgeous is the answer. Like many wines here at the Moueix tasting, the nose is quite muted at first, but then a minerally, damson-like nose emerges with superb definition. The palate is elegant, cohesive and expressive with note of brambly red fruits, cranberry and raspberry. Good weight and focus with a firm, solid finish. Excellent.“
