2000 Clos du Marquis, St. Julien (12 x Bottle)
Good full medium ruby. Superripe, exotic aromas of roasted currant, smoked meat and cocoa powder. Sweet, lush and silky, with compelling depth of texture and an intriguing gamey note. Very long finish features lush tannins.

Vinous
Medium ruby. Blackberry, cassis, black licorice and menthol on the nose. Large-scaled and voluminous for this wine, but inky and a bit monolithic today. Fresh black fruit flavors are nicely framed by sound acidity. Finishes with substantial ripe tannins. Will make a big mouthful of wine.
88-91 Points

Vinous
Medium full ruby. Aromatic nose combines black cherry, violet, minerals, mint, chocolate and shoe polish. Sweet and lush in the mouth but with excellent vinosity and firm backbone giving the wine a penetrating quality. Finishes firmly tannic but not dry, with impressively persistent, sweet flavors of dark berries and minerals.
