The outstanding 2000 boasts a deep ruby/purple color and a terrific nose of jammy black fruits intermixed with smoke charcoal licorice and vanilla. The wine is deep medium to full-bodied concentrated and impeccably pure. It should drink well for at least a decade. Fashioned at the home domaine of Jean-Marie Chadronnier one of Bordeaux's most articulate spokespersons (he works for the negociant Dourthe) this wine is a sleeper of the vintage and well worth a special effort to find. This is a revelation for this particular appellation. - Robert M. Parker Jr.
