A magnificent effort, the 2005 is the greatest Brane-Cantenac
I have
tasted. Even more compelling than it was last year, it
admirably
demonstrates why this was such a highly regarded
property in the middle
of the 19th century. Boasting a dense
purple color, stunning sweetness,
and a glorious perfume of
spring flowers, lead pencil shavings, black
cherry jam, and
blackberries, it is an elegantly styled wine with
gorgeous
concentration, superb harmony, beautifully integrated tannin
and acidity, and an expansive, long finish. Yet, the overall
impression
is one of finesse, elegance, and serious flavor
concentration. While it will undoubtedly last 30 years or more,
it is
hard to know whether it will close down or become more
drinkable. I
recommend giving it 3-4 years of bottle age and
drinking it over the
following two and a half decades.
