Ex Chateau Pichon Baron
Following the release earlier this week of their 2005, Chateau Pichon Baron has now released some stock of their superb 2000 vintage, described by Parker as "a candidate for one of the finest wines made at this estate.....a compelling 2000".
- To secure Ex Chateau stock of a 2000 Second Growth of this pedigree is certainly a great opportunity and one not to be missed.
- We also have a small number of cases left of the 2005 in bottles and magnums, described by Parker as "superb".
Wine offered In Bond (IB) excluding duty and VAT.

"This is one of the great wines of the vintage, and certainly a candidate for one of the finest wines made at this estate under the management of Christian Seeley and proprietor AXA. Showing incredibly well at two tastings of 2000s, the wine has a dense bluish/purple color and a beautiful nose of incense, melted asphalt, and creme de cassis as well as hints of new saddle leather and licorice. It is superbly concentrated and very pure, with excellent texture and opulence. The acidity seems low, the tannin high but well-integrated. This is a compelling 2000 that is just closing in on its window of maturity and should stay there for at least 20 or more years. Bravo!"

Magnums | 2 | - | 1000 per Case | Add to shopping cart |
''As usual, this superb Pauillac possesses an inky/blue/black color in addition to a big, sweet nose of graphite, charcoal, burning embers, black currant liqueur, and toasty vanillin from new oak casks. Full-bodied with high but sweet, well-integrated tannins, the 2005 Pichon Baron is more backward than the blockbuster 2003 or prodigious 2000. Nevertheless, it is a superb effort whose power, length, and tannic structure suggest it should be at its peak between 2015-2035"
