Lot #290. Faiveley (Domaine) Clos de Vougeot 2005

Description: Consists of 3 Magnums, 1.5L
Score: 92-95 AM.
"This too is very deftly oaked with an earthy and very ripe mix of briar, dark berry fruit and pungent underbrush aromas leading to muscled, energetic and sappy flavors where the mid-palate fat almost completely buffers the firm though not aggressive tannins that add a chewy texture to the gorgeously long finish. There is a really attractive underlying tension here but like most of these grands crus, this is a wine for the patient that will last for decades." Burghound.com, Jan 01, 2007
Provenance: The Sea Cliff Cellar
Notes: Very lightly scuffed capsules, 1 nicked label.
