The 2005 Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru comes across as quite soft and accessible in this vintage, which is typical for a year in which many wines appear to be on a relatively short aging curve. There is lovely definition and up-front juiciness in the white-fleshed fruit, but the wine’s persistence drops off a bit on the finish. Overall the 2005 is a pretty wine to drink now and over the next few years. Dosage was 7 grams per liter. Disgorged December 2011. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2015. (11/ 2012)
