Château Rouget--Vintage 2000
Pomerol
Tasting Note: The finest Rouget since the mid-sixties (i.e., 1964), this dense plum/ruby-coloured 2000 offers aromas and flavours of liquorice, balsam wood, plums, black cherry liqueur, and raspberries presented in a full-bodied, plump, chewy format. The flamboyant aromatics are followed by an equally impressive, lush attack, but serious tannin appears in the finish of this meaty, full-bodied Pomerol. With wines like this, it is time to rediscover Rouget. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 146, April 2003.
