Domaine de la Mordorée La Reine des Bois Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2005
Since 1996, their Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee de la Reine des Bois has been one of the stars of the vintage. The 2005 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee de la Reine des Bois boasts a dense purple color, a full-bodied, opulent style, moderately high tannin, sensational concentration, and abundant aromas and flavors of spring flowers, blueberries, blackberries, cherries, and spice. It is a meaty, fleshy, tannic effort that brings to mind the 1998. A brilliant wine for the vintage, it should be exceptionally long lived. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2025. Robert Parker

Kirsch, wood, tobacco, blood, dried herbs on the nose. A thick palate with dark,brooding red fruit and a savory undertow. A slight roasted quality. This is very dense, thick and ripe. Hearty.
