Chateau Magrez Fombrauge 2000

Professionelle Bewertungen

Robert Parker (98)

Made in an over-the-top style that seems to get more classic as the wine ages, this special cuvee from the Fombrauge vineyard (made by Michel Rolland for Bernard Magrez) reveals a dense plum/purple color in addition to a big, sweet nose of camphor, creosote, blackberries, blueberries, espresso roast, graphite, and toasty oak, and a phenomenally layered, full-bodied, rich mouthfeel. I thought this 2000 would be close to full maturity by 2006, but it remains surprisingly youthful. It should drink well for 20-25 more years. Bravo!

Pretty, modern red. Lovely aromas of crushed fruit, coffee and cream. Full-bodied, with lots of new oak but it's silky, tasty and fruity.
