The 2005 Chateauneuf du Pape displays plenty of garrigue, ground pepper, black cherry jam, spice, and earth characteristics. It is a fresh, medium to full-bodied effort revealing slightly higher acidity than its 2006 counterpart, but also a more compact, structured style, even though it is accessible. Drink it over the next 10-12 years.
