98+ Points | Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate

Another massive effort, the inky/purple-colored 2005 La Mission-Haut-Brion is broodingly backward and foreboding.  The aromatic profile offers hints of charcoal, freshly laid hot tar, truffles, graphite and black fruits.  Full-bodied, powerful, tannic and almost painfully extracted and concentrated with tremendous structure, good acidity and a massive finish, this infant wine is largely unchanged since I first tasted it from bottle.  If everything comes together in 10-15 years, this brilliant 2005 should merit a triple digit score.  Anticipated maturity: 2020-2050+. ~ Robert Parker

97 Points | Wine Spectator

The Indian spices and blackberry on the nose are so enticing and inspiring, leading to a full-bodied palate, with very polished tannins that caress.  Goes on and on as this builds on the palate, with a mineral and berry aftertaste.  For long-term aging.  5,665 cases made. ~ James Suckling
