Gruaud Larose 2005
CHARACTERISTICS :
Winter with rain below normal (-50%). February to mid-March: temperatures slightly below normal (late budburst).
Normal April, but end of May, temperatures climbed rapidly continuing into June (flowering in great conditions, no water).
Very dry summer, only 3 significant showers. 2005 was dryer than 2003, but the vine suffered less (dry winter and spring=>the root system went very far down to seek the underground water). Beginning of September, close to 40�, then rain during the 2nd week end. Then, sun and little water (great concentration/perfect sanitary conditions).
Rain-free harvest. One of the easiest vintages in the past 30 years.
