Gorgeous wine with seamless texture and wonderful focused black fruits and spices with none of the characters standing out. Amazing elegance and effortless grace with long finish. The tasting of this wine in Hong Kong was equally impressive.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate June - 2010
Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
The first offering in what turned out to be a remarkable decade for this property, the 2000 Clos Fourtet was the finest wine produced here in many years, but it was subsequently eclipsed by the 2003, 2005, 2008, and 2009. The dense plum/purple-tinged 2000 exhibits notes of wet rocks, camphor, blackberries, and cassis. Full-bodied with tremendous density, it appears to have shed much of its tannin, and is through its adolescent stage. It should continue to evolve effortlessly for another decade.

Clearly this has entered its prime time drinking window. Silky and round, the licorice, dark plum, cherry and earthy nose is starting to come out. Full bodied and plush, the wine shows a lot of ripe, sweet, fruits and earthy characteristics in the soft textured finish.
