Die Farbe ist ein dichtes, violett schimmerndes Rot. Im Aromenbouquet finden sich dunkle Früchte, nasse Steine, Graphit sowie Röst- und Vanillearomen. Vollmundig, tief und dicht: dieser Jahrgang 2005 ist ein legendärer Wein des Hauses. Seine optimale Reife erreicht er zwischen den Jahren 2023 und 2025.

Wine Advocate-Parker :
This is a prodigious effort. A blend of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon and the balance Merlot and Cabernet Franc (only 37% of the crop qualified for Las Cases), this dense ruby/purple wine has a stunningly pure bouquet of dark fruit, wet rocks, graphite, and subtle background toast/vanillin. Full-bodied, masculine, and very deep and concentrated, this titanic effort is at least 8-10 years away from its plateau of maturity. The Delon family have produced another legend. Anticipated maturity: 2023-2050+.
