Score 99/100 · Drink 2014-2029, Jeb Dunnuck, Wine Advocate, Jun 2015
Flirting with perfection, the 2005 Clos des Truffiers rivals the incredible 2009, but comes in just behind the otherworldly 2001. Bottled after 30 months in barrel (with one racking after 26 months), it's an incredible Syrah that has a masculine, yet lively, fresh, and incredibly pure feel in its caramelized black fruits, licorice, scorched earth and distinct minerality. Full-bodied, lavishly concentrated, unctuous and yet still elegant and graceful, this blockbuster has another 15+ years of evolution.
