Château La Clusière--Vintage 2000
Saint-Emilion, grand cru classé
In original wooden case
Tasting note: From this hillside 2.6-acre vineyard planted with 100 Merlot a veritable legend has emerged. The 2000 is undoubtedly the finest La Clusière ever produced. A magnificent effort possessing off-the-chart extract levels as well as a remarkably intense palate impression, it tastes like the undistilled essence of a particular vineyard and wine type. The colour is opaque blue/purple. The bouquet reveals dense blackberry, plum, and cassis aromas infused with minerals, liquorice, espresso, and graphite. Full-bodied, massively-endowed, concentrated, and incredibly well-delineated, with high but velvety tannin, this is a magnificent wine. It was bottled, as are all the Perse wines, with neither fining nor filtration. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate No 146, April 2003
