Maybe the single best example of just how great the value side of 2005 Bordeaux really is. Phenomenal wine.
According to Wine Spectator: "Soft and velvety, with blackberry, mineral and light mint character on the nose and palate. Medium- to full-bodied, with a caressing texture. There's lovely balance to this. Best after 2011." (03/08)

According to Robert Parker: "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." (04/06)

Food Pairing:
Red Bordeau is excellent with beef, lamb, grilled veal, game such as pheasant and poultry such as turkey. The wine pairs well with food made with rich sauces. Other good accompaniments are: tandoori, pGtT, bean dishes and stews.

About Varietal:
The well-balanced nature of clarets ( another name for red Bordeaux ) comes from the subtle blend of several grape varieties. Merlot is an early-ripening variety that contributes a spicy, fruity aroma as well as roundness and softness.Cabernet Sauvignon, which ripens later, is deeply coloured and aromatic. Its tannin gives wines a remarkable ageing potential. Cabernet Franc confers a very elegant bouquet . Petit Verdot and Malbec are also used, but to a lesser degree.

Recipe:
BAKED PORK CHOP A LA BORDEAUX

4 heavy cut loin pork chops
Salt
Pepper
1/8 tsp. nutmeg
1/8 tsp. ground cloves
1 tbsp. brown sugar

Dry chops and season with salt and pepper. Broil chops until golden on both sides; drain. Sprinkle chops with nutmeg and clove. Add brown sugar and wine to oven-proof casserole pan with chops and bake at 350 degrees covered for 15 minutes. Remove cover and bake an additional 15 minutes. Serve garnished with spiced apples.
