2005 Domaine Carneros Le Reve Brut

91 Points, Wine News: Domaine Carneros, 2005 Brut Vintage Cuvée - December/January 2009-09 "One of the first release from the fabulous 2005 vintage proves what all the fuss is about. Clean, slightly floral nose with undertones of vanilla, toasted hazelnut, pear and spice. Perfectly balanced and sturdy with a mousse-y creaminess, flavors of lemon and lime, apple and pear, and just a bit of sweet berry fruit." - Jeff Cox

92 Points Wine Spectator: Domaine Carneros Brut 2005 - September 08, 2008 "Beautifully focused and refined, with Gala apple and raspberry aromas and flavors that are crisp yet layered, with creamy lemon and lime notes and a finish that lingers with mineral and a hint of yeast. Drink now through 2012." - Tim Fish
