Chateau Haut-Bergey Pessac-Leognan 2005 PURYEARSALE it is doing the thingNearly two decades of graceful aging have softened this 2005 Graves blend into a refined expression of southern Mdoc terroir. Forest floor, wet stone, and charcoal frame deep currents of blackcurrant and cherry, while the palate reveals remarkable brightness and focus with dried cherries, orange peel, and mineral precision. Full bodied yet harmonious, with sweet tannins and opulent depth.
