Tasting Notes | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
This fully mature, elegant 2000 tails off slightly in the finish. Notes of forest floor, bay leaf, licorice, red currants, and cranberries are offered in a Burgundian-like, fresh, vibrant format. The tannins have melted away in this medium-bodied, finesse-styled effort. Consume it over the next 7-8 years. Score: 88 Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2010-2018 01 June 2010 |

This is a nicely textured, plum/ruby-colored 2000 with a moderately intense bouquet of black fruits intermingled with licorice, vanilla, and plums. The wine is pure, elegant, medium-bodied, and stylish. While not a blockbuster, it is delicious, nicely structured, and accessible. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2016.

No notes given. Score: 87 - 88 Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com 01 April 2001 |

Still very deep with the merest hint of ruby and paleness at the rim. Very subtle nose .. Lures you in but there is no hint of overripeness here, rather a hidden message. Fresh and succulent with hints of tea and toast but very subtle ones. Really quite delicate and beautifully balanced. Neat, medium finish. Score: 17 Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com Maturity: 2009-2017 06 May 2009 |

Opulent red. Intense aromas of currants, cigar tobacco and berries. Full-bodied, with a solid core of silky tannins and a long finish. Well-made. Best after 2008. Score: 91 James Suckling, Wine Spectator Maturity: 2008+ 31 March 2003 |
