Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Cuvee La Reine des Bois--Vintage 2000
Rhône. Domaine-bottled: Domaine de la Mordorée
Tasting Note: The flagship wine remains Mordorée's remarkable Châteauneuf du Pape Cuvèe de la Reine des Bois. The 2000 boasts an inky purple colour in addition to a ravishing perfume of wood smoke, crème de cassis, blueberries, plums, figs, and a hint of graphite. Full-bodied, with sweet tannin, a layered richness, staggering ripeness, and a finish that lasts for nearly 50 seconds, this monumental Châteauneuf du Pape continues the unbelievable succession of superstar wines that began in 1998. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2020. 97 Points, Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 145 Feb 2003
