From the outstanding 2005 vintage and scoring 85/100 Parker points \"A blend of 67% Merlot, 27% Cabernet Franc and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon, De Viaud’s 2005 Lalande de Pomerol is a somewhat compact, medium-bodied, dark ruby-colored wine, but it is not terribly complex or compelling. It possesses solid fruit and ripe tannin in a nice, drinkable style\" Drink now - 2027.
