Details
Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Vieilles Vignes--Vintage 2000
Rhône, French-bottled: Tardieu-Laurent
In original cartons
Tasting Note: The extraordinary 2000 Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes is a compelling effort produced from 60-year old Grenache vines (425 cases produced). Deep ruby/purple-colored with a beautiful nose of jammy black fruits, melted licorice, camphor, spice, and vanilla, it possesses great presence and a viscous texture, yet is remarkably light on its feet. It is a tour de force in winemaking. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2020. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 145 (Feb 2003).
