DOMAINE DE LA VIEILLE JULIENNE
Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Domaine de la Vieille Julienne Réservé--Vintage 2000
Rhône. Domaine-bottled: Daumen
In original wooden cases
Tasting note: The 2000 Châteauneuf du Pape Réservé (15.5 alcohol; 100 Grenache) is a wine of magnificent intensity as well as majestic texture and richness. Layers of concentrated fruit cascade over the palate. Opaque purple-colored and extremely full-bodied, with a gorgeous nose of minerals, white flowers, black fruits, pepper, and garrigue, this sumptuous, seamless 2000 Châteauneuf must be tasted to be believed. I have had this wine a half dozen times in blind tastings that included some of the finest 2000 Châteauneuf-du-Papes, and it consistently ranks as one of the top 2 or 3 wines in the tastings. Then again, I'm looking at its overall potential as it is not the most forward or evolved of the 2000 Châteauneuf-du-Papes. It is a magnificent tour-de-force in winemaking. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2025. 99 points. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #145, February 2003
