Château Brown Pessac-léognan 2005   BN#237269 Varietal Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot Category Red Wine Region France : Bordeaux : Graves Producer Château Brown $37.99 On Sale $29.99 SKU01298 print cellar notes Wine Enthusiast Well-balanced, this is a wine that already shows the considerable improvements made at Brown under the Mau family ownership. There is a delicious lightness of touch, with black currant fruit flavors shot through with fresh acidity. Score: 91. —Roger Voss, June 01, 2008. Wine Advocate This lower pedigree wine represents undeniable quality/value rapport in 2005. This vintage is so deep in quality among the better run, less heralded estates, that these wines should appeal to readers looking for terrific values from Bordeaux. Most of these wines are Merlot-based and will be drinkable young. Sleeper of the vintage. Score: 90. —Robert Parker, April 2006. Wine Spectator Has a beautiful nose of crushed blackberry and raspberry, with mineral undertones. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a long, flavorful finish. The best in a long time from this estate. Best after 2012. 5,550 cases made. Score: 90. —James Suckling, March 31, 2008.
