A brilliant, heavenly wine that simply couldn't be any better, the 2000 Château Lafite-Rothschild is based on 93% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% Merlot. Ripe currants, lead pencil, cedary spice, leather, and tons of tobacco and truffle all emerge on the nose, and on the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, with a broad, layered, deep yet at the same time weightless and seamless mouthfeel. It still has tannins and structure but is so complex and nuanced, with that classic Lafite elegance. It has another 30-40 years of prime drinking and will most likely see its 100th birthday still offering pleasure. Drink 2026-2066.Inc. VAT£20,029.66 -

Red and black fruits, huge truffle, graphite, spring flowers, and remarkable complexity all emerge from the 2000 Château Lafleur, a 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Franc blend that is the very essence of this legendary Pomerol estate. Full-bodied on the palate, it's pure and seamless, with fine, polished tannins, incredible depth, and a finish that simply won't quit. If this doesn't make your eyes roll back in your head, nothing will. It's drinking utterly spectacularly today and has another two decades of longevity at this level, with a gradual decline thereafter. Drink 2026-2046.Inc. VAT£13,285.92 -

Saturated dark red. Superripe aromas of roasted black raspberry, smoke and game, with a hint of exotic spices. Silky, fat and sweet, with terrific volume. Chewy, concentrated flavors of raspberry, tar, iron and mocha, with just enough acidity to maintain its shape. The rich, sweet tannins reach the front teeth. The crop level was a rather low 32 hectoliters per hectare following a saignee, according to owner Jonathan Maltus, who also makes Teyssier and Le Dome.Inc. VAT£575.21 -

The 2000 Lagrange is deep in color and sports a bouquet very similar to the bottle poured at the vertical, resplendent with blackberry, pencil box and a discreet ash scent. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, and maybe less brutish than the previous bottle, displaying more cohesion and less austerity on the finish. This is delightful and the best example that I have encountered.Inc. VAT£1,016.20 -

Spicy herbs, red and black fruit, tobacco, camphor, and a beautiful sense of white truffle all emerge from the 2000 Château Le Pin, a remarkably pure, focused, and elegant Pomerol that was closed at first and needs air to show at its best. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it has fine tannins, a silky, pure mouthfeel, and outstanding length on the finish. As always, this complex, exotic wine shines for its elegance and finesse, and it should hold nicely for another 15-20 years. Drink 2026-2046.Inc. VAT£28,981.69 -
Pressing every advantage afforded by the conditions of 2000, Léoville Barton produced an exceptionally long-lived and aristocratic wine, only just beginning to approach its recommended drinking window – this is classical Bordeaux after all! “This is a behemoth” in the words of Parker, who found that even in 2010 with a decade of age the St-Julien was a “broodingly backward” wine which “makes a mockery of many modern-day consumers wanting a wine for immediate gratification”. A further decade on and this Léoville Barton is finally beginning to unfurl its immense majesty to reveal its classic notes of cassis, cedarwood and dark fruits with impeccably constructed tannins. Parker ends his note, accompanied by a score of 95+ points, with the advice that “those who bought it should continue to exercise patience and be proud to own a wonderful classic with five decades of longevity ahead of it”.Inc.

Currants, cassis, graphite, smoked tobacco, and sandalwood notes all define the 2000 Château Margaux, a legendary effort that tops out my scale. Still deep ruby-hued with perhaps just a touch of amber starting to creep in, it's full-bodied, deep, and layered on the palate, with ripe, polished tannins and a gorgeous finish. Based on 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Merlot raised in new barrels, Philippe commented that this might be the first “modern” styled Margaux, and the tannins aren't far off the quality found in today's wines.

Another example that Nature has some regard for the creations of man, with the 2000 vintage offering a grand final bow for the Millennium. To describe the weather as other than perfect would be near folly, as the harvest went off without a hitch. The Merlot came off midway through September and a touch of rain in October allowed the Cabernet to hang on a bit longer before being harvested at perfect phenolic ripeness.The Left Bank has the edge but in truth there is little between the Medoc and Libournais in such a good year!
