2000 Red Bordeaux

Drink now,

Magnum. Tasted blind. Blackish ruby. Distinctively herbal nose. Then soft and round in a mulberry sort of way. Very easy to like even if it is different from most of the Médocs in this line-up. Something a bit tarry about this. Lots of magic and not too austere in texture without being at all sweet. Lots of drive. Lots of tannin!

2000 Ch. La Lagune, Haut-Médoc

Chateau La Lagune, Ready, but will keep,

The fact that owner Patrick Moulin used less than 50% of his crop for the Grand Vin goes some way to explaining why this wine is so good in 2000. The rich strawberry and cassis fruit is concentrated yet delicate, combining purity, balance and sophisticated charm. A wonderful wine.

Shows the pebbly, slightly austere character typical of the AOC, with taut red currant, damson plum and lilac notes stretching out over a tangy iron edge. A light savory echo on the finish, and fully mature.

Ready, but will keep,

A classic effort, the 2000 Haut-Bailly exhibits notes of lead pencil shavings, raspberries, black currants, and loamy soil. Subtle hints of earth and smoke are also present in this medium-bodied, stylish, well-balanced, pure wine that emphasizes restraint and graciousness over power and blockbuster intensity. It has entered its plateau of maturity, where it should remain for another fifteen years.

2000 Ch. Cheval Blanc, St Emilion

Chateau Cheval Blanc, Ready, but will keep,

"Among the young Chevals of the last 25 years, this is the most Port-like I have ever tasted. It represents the essence of this noble vineyard.....Opulent and full-bodied, with a diaphanous quality (each layer peels away to reveal even more nuances), low acidity, sweet tannin, and a 60 second finish, it is unquestionably as profound as the 1990 and 1982. It is the most compelling Cheval Blanc since the mythical 1947 and 1949, but patience is required. Potentially, this is a perfect wine."

2000 L'Hermitage, St Emilion

Ready, but will keep,

"Made from a vineyard situated near Angelus and Beau-Sejour-Becot, this 600-case blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc is fashioned from low yields and is put through a pre-fermentation cold maceration. The rich, pure, concentrated, opaque purple-colored 2000 displays all the hallmarks of this great vintage - power, intensity, depth, ripeness, and moderately high tannin. Dense and impressive.

2000 Ch. Lafite Rothschild, Pauillac

Chateau Lafite Rothschild, Ready, but will keep,

Since I gave this wine a perfect score, I suppose some could see this as a downgrade. I found everything still there for a perfect rating, but I was just struck by how tight and backward the wine was. A blend of 93.3% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Merlot, the wine still has a dark ruby/purple color and an extraordinarily youthful nose of graphite, black currants, sweet, unsmoked cigar tobacco, and flowers.

The wine is rich, medium to full-bodied, but has that ethereal elegance and purity that is always Lafite. I originally predicted that it would first reach maturity in 2011, but I would push that back by 5-7 years now, although it has 50-60 years of life in front of it. Owners of this beauty are probably best advised to forget it for 5 years. Tasted next to a 1996 several days after the 2000 tasting, the 1996, which is a perfect wine, was far closer to full maturity than the 2000.

2000 Ch. Montrose, St Estèphe

Chateau Montrose, Ready, but will keep,

Second Growth Ch. Montrose is located in the east of St Estèphe, just north of the hamlet of Marbuzet, on a gravel knoll only 800 metres from the Gironde estuary. The proximity of the estuary ensures a microclimate that protects against frost, and the vines, which lie on deep clay-gravel soils, benefit from a south-easterly aspect.

This is classic St Estèphe from the excellent millennium vintage: floral overtones are complemented by firm blackcurrant fruit and a savoury personality. This ideally needs another few years in bottle (or at least decanting a few hours before drinking) to soften its imposing tannic structure. Full of mineral complexity, this hugely impressive effort has the ability to age for decades.

2000 Cos d'Estournel, St Estèphe

Cos d'Estournel, Ready, but will keep,

Inky black colour, with a dense, sweet berry nose and an attractive aroma of smoky new oak. The palate offers little at the moment as the firm tannins and balanced acidity surround a deep centre of cassis fruit and mineral extraction. One for the cellar.

2000 Ch. Calon-Ségur, St Estèphe

Chateau Calon Segur, Ready, but will keep,

Tasted from an ex-château bottle at BI Wine & Spirits Calon-Segur dinner in London. The 2000 Calon Segur is one of those wines that reminds you how great the millennial vintage could be. Now at fifteen years old, it has a brilliant, vivacious red berry nose infused with ash and cigar box aromas. The detail here is a beguiling and it just "sings" Saint Estèphe. The palate is medium-bodied with dense, firm tannin that provide a rigid backbone, but it is swathed in copious tobacco-drenched black fruit and a superb line of acidity. It finishes with a twist of bitter cherry on the finish that completes what is a deeply impressive Calon-Ségur; it might just outclass the 2005. Tasted March 2015.

2000 Ch. Léoville-Poyferré, St Julien

Chateau Leoville Poyferre, Ready, but will keep,

The plushest, most ostentatious and dramatic of all the Leovilles in 2000, this wine is already sumptuous, displaying some nuances in its huge nose of vanilla bean, black chocolate, jammy black cherries, cassis, and graphite in a flamboyant style. Opulent, savory, rich, and full-bodied, it is a head-turning, prodigious wine and a complete contrast to the extracted behemoth of Leoville Barton and the backward, classic Leoville Las Cases. The Poyferre’s low acidity, sweet tannin and an already gorgeous mouthfeel make it a wine to drink now as well as over the next 25 or more years.

2000 Ch. Angélus, St Emilion

Chateau Angelus, Ready, but will keep,

The finest effort since the 1989 and 1990, this dense purple-colored wine has an extravagantly ripe, concentrated style. The 2000 (in a new engraved bottle) offers up aromas of blackberry liqueur and vintage port. As the wine sits in the glass, graphite, wet stones, smoke, barbecue spices, and olives also make an appearance. It unfolds on the palate in layers, is full-bodied, big and rich yet incredibly poised, well-balanced, and pure. Quite backward, this is one of the greatest Angelus made to date. Yields were a modest 35 hectoliters per hectare. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2030. Bravo!

Very dark ruby with some evolution. Toasty and appetising. Very appealing subtlety and complexity on the nose though on the palate it is clearly not as ripe as some. Maybe higher yields? An attractive drink but far from intense.

Chateau Batailley, Ready, but will keep,

Dark purple colour with intense flavours of ripe black fruit, cedar, and rich, toasty oak. Lush and full-bodied with a very long finish, this really is enticing. Though traditional in style the abundance of Cabernet Sauvignon (70%) in the blend has created an extremely hedonistic wine.

2000 Ch. Potensac, Médoc

Drink now,

Ch. Potensac is one of the best loved Cru Bourgeois of the Medoc. Resurgent since the mid-nineties, and made under the watchful eye of Hubert Delon (Léoville-Las Cases), Potensac is often mistaken in blind tastings for wines with far grander names. The characteristics of the 2000 vintage are amply displayed here - an immense nose of cedar wood and bramble fruit, dense cassis on the palate, and a beautifully rounded finish. Full-bodied, powerful and wonderfully savoury. Drink now, and over the next four or five years.

The wines of this Chteau tend to be reasonably light, but in 2000 they have taken full advantage of the fabulous ripeness of the Cabernet Sauvignon and the estate's excellent location (neighbouring Ch.
