Description

The 2000 Bordeaux vintage was brilliant.

The winter was mild but a warm, wet spring created a fleeting problem with mildew. However, from July onwards, a spectacular summer dominated with hardly any rain until mid-September when the heavens opened, although it was likely welcome in some areas. Sunny weather then returned for the October harvest only broken by a single day of rain, a boon to parched vines. The producers who picked early risked unripe wines and others who picked later risked jammyness. However, for the majority who picked at the right time, the vintage offered some fantastic rewards.

The resulting wines were rich and ripe with great structure, depth, complexity and tannin. The Médoc was arguably the most successful with Margaux, St Julien and Pauillac all offering lovely wines but on the right bank, St. Emilion and Pomerol also performed very well.

There should be a wealth of wines still drinking well now to choose from.

Jeff Leve rated this vintage 96 out of 200 and described it as;
This bottle was much better than the one tasted a few months ago. With the texture of pure silk, from the moment the wine left the glass, it was where it needed to be with its perfume seemingly created in a tobacco shop with flowers on every counter. Full-bodied, elegant, fresh and refined, the silky tannins and layers of sweet, ripe, soft red fruits on your palate sealed the deal. You can enjoy this for another 2 decades with ease.
