Château Pape-Clément--Vintage 2000
Pessac (Graves), cru classé
Offered In Original Wooden Case
Tasting note: The profound 2000 (a blend of equal parts Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon) continues to put on weight. An opaque purple color is accompanied by stunning aromas of wood smoke, cocoa, black currant and cherry liqueur, coffee, scorched earth, and new oak. A wine of extraordinary concentration, elegance, and complexity, it is one of the finest Pape Clements of the last three decades, but look out ... the 2001 may be even better! Only 55 of the production made it into the final blend. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2025. 95 points, Robert Parker, Wine Advocate # 146 (Apr 2003)
