Score 94/100 · Drink 2023-2029, Jeb Dunnuck, Mar 2023

The 2000 Le Defi De Fontenil is also mature, with impressive purity in its darker currants, smoked tobacco, graphite, and leather-laced aromas and flavors. As with the 2001, it's fully mature, with medium to full bodied richness and sweet, integrated tannins, and should hold nicely going forward for 4-6 years, with a gradual decline thereafter.
