Two Great 2000 Bordeaux

Not only these are proven wines with plenty of upside potential but, when one looks at the prices for most 2005 Bordeaux, it is not hard to figure out that they are also under-valued.

This is perfect, ex-chateau stock in original wooden case. Arriving next week!

  • Gruaud Larose 2000 $1,599. per case (10 cases available)




    "A deep garnet hue with deep brick rim. The nose is very perfumed with blackberry, freshly rolled tobacco and a touch of graphite. What distinguishes the aromatics is the stupendous definition and focus, lending it immense vigour and vivacity. The palate is full-bodied with very good acidity and an almost Burgundian texture. Svelte, beautifully interwoven tannins, pure black, cedar-infused fruits. Expressive yet still a young teenager with a very promising adulthood. Drink 2012-2025+" 96 points Neal Martin (Robert Parker's Wine Advocate)

    "This saturated bluish-black/purple-colored wine seems at first closed and broodingly backward. In the mouth, it is dense, textured, full-bodied, pure, yet, at the same time, closed. This wine is large-sized, with high tannin but equally high extract and richness. The wine will require patience, and seems to me to be the best effort Gruaud Larose has put forth since their sumptuous 1990. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2030." 94 points Robert Parker

  • Trotanoy 2000 $1,099. per six pack (8 six packs available)


    "A very deep, almost opaque garnet colour. A very intense nose of blackberry, plum, a touch of hoi sin and a touch of liquorice. Broody and backward but it will reward those with patience to cellar. The palate is full-bodied, quite tannic and suffused with puissance. Masculine, a touch of tobacco and roasted herbs on the back palate from the Cabernet Franc. Intense, quite conservative and introverted at the moment. Great length. A superb Trotanoy, but one presently closing down. Drink 2015-2035. ." 94 points Neal Martin (Robert Parker's Wine Advocate)
