Item Description
Two Magnums of 2000 Vintage in Bordeaux. Wine Spectator’s James Suckling claimed that it’s “the first exceptional year for a new generation in Bordeaux.” Uber-wine critic, Robert Parker, has gone so far as to call it “the greatest vintage Bordeaux has ever produced.”
Reserve de Leoville Barton 2000 is the second wine of Chateau Leoville Barton, a superstar from the super 2000 vintage. The wine: a deep ruby with a narrow pink rim. Attractive, plump nose showing mineral and cola bean complexity. Medium-full-bodied, some smooth plummy fruit and long, creamy length.
Robert Parker called 2000 Reignac 2000 "an amazing accomplishment for a Bordeaux Superieur," a blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, cropped at 25 hectoliters per hectare and aged 100% on its lees in new oak, exhibits an opaque ruby/purple color, an impressively complex nose of black currants intermixed with graphite, vanilla and cedar. The wine is medium to full-bodied, dense, rich and the qualitative equivalent of a top classified growth from the Medoc. Parker gave this wine a 92.
