A tremendous effort, and certainly the best La Conseillante since the marvelous
duo of 1989 and 1990, this deep ruby/plum/purple-colored wine offers up notes
of blackberries and kirsch liqueur intermixed with licorice, incense, spice
box, and copious amounts of toasty oak. It is a relatively powerful effort for
La Conseillante, with more tannin and structure than most vintages possess. As
the wine sits in the glass, black raspberries, blueberries, smoke along with
floral notes emerge. There is tremendous purity, medium to full body, great
precision and concentration. Unlike most vintages of La Conseillante, the 2000
will require patience. A bottle kept open refused to oxidize until day six!
Anticipated maturity: 2008-2025.
