2005 Vintage Report

2005 Vintage Report

Ref: 2005..

2005 was a successful vintage in Bordeaux with a very dry summer and little rain from May until September when showers revieved the drought. A truely superlative vintage for both left and right bank producers. A vintage for drinkable wines to be consumed in the long term. 2005 was very successful for Red Burgundy and outstanding for White Burgundy. It was an outstanding vintage in the North and South of the Cote du Rhone. In Portugal, there was a small, though high quality crop which produced some good vintage ports. The Champagne region also produced some very good Champagne which is drinking beautifully.
