The more focused and deeper 2005 Chateauneuf du Pape La Bernardine exhibits plenty of rich berry fruit and a perfume not unlike a briery Zinfandel (pepper, earth, and roasted herbs). A sweet attack, good delineation, and more acidity and tannin than the 2004 suggest the 2005 will evolve for 10-12+ years. Importer: Paterno Imports, Lake Bluff, IL; tel. (847) 604-8900
