Tasting Notes
Beautiful color dark and intense. Nose aromas of red fruit and spices smoked. Final fine, very fruity. Complex, pleasant and tasty wine.

Highly-extracted, powerful, chewy, ripe black currant aromas mixed with fennel, leather, iron, and new oak jump from the glass of this opaque ruby/purple-colored 2000. Full, dense, moderately tannic, and potentially long-lived, it may turn out to be even better than the score indicates. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2020.

A lovely wine from this château. Aromas of crushed blackberries and raspberries. Full-bodied, with well-integrated tannins and a long refreshing finish. Very racy. Best after 2009. 6,665 cases made.
