2000 Chateau Pichon-Longueville Baron Pauillac

A deep, dark color. The nose is still somewhat hesitant, with hints of toast, cedar and dark fruit. Full-bodied and elegant, powerful and refined on the palate. The tannins are harmonious and silky. The length is truly impressive, almost captivating. Here is a vintage which will remain a benchmark for its perfectly restrained powerfulness, a marvellous expression of the distinction of the terrior backed by the remarkable quality of the tannins.
