FINEST RHONE
Lying in Weybridge, Surrey (EHD)
Offered duty-paid, but available in bond
Hermitage Rouge--Vintage 2000
Rhône. Domaine-bottled: Chave
In original carton
Tasting note: A dense ruby/purple colour is accompanied by sumptuous aromas of liquorice, blackberries, currants, spice box, and earth. Deep, full-bodied, and rich, with moderately high tannin, it is atypical for the vintage given its structure and density (two characteristics most 2000 northern Rhônes lack). It is a brilliant achievement in a challenging year. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2035. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate # 147 Jun 2003
