The 2005 Crozes Hermitage Blanc Clos des Grives is still fresh and lively, with a certain umami-like quality in its citron, saffron, caramelized lemons and smoky aromas and flavors. Still lively and fresh on the palate, with bright acidity and plenty of texture, it shows how well this cuvée ages. I don’t see any upside to holding bottles, but I suspect it will continue drinking nicely for at least 2-3 years.
