Château Branaire-Ducru--Vintage 2000
Saint-Julien, 4me cru classé
Tasting Note: A saturated purple colour offers up notes of graphite, plum, raspberry, and blueberry fruit in that distinctive Branaire style. Always a singular wine, even for St.-Julien, the wine boasts superb purity, rich, medium to full-bodied flavours, with loads of sweetness, some subtle toasty oak, and strength and richness that builds incrementally on the palate. A top-flight Branaire, this is the finest wine made at this property since the 1996 and 1982. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 146, April 2003.
