Score 90/100 · Drink 2005-2015, Robert Parker, Feb 2003
Surprisingly, the 2000 Chateauneuf du Pape is firmer-styled than the 2001, with a salty, sea breeze, iodine, garrigue, pepper, and kirsch liqueur-scented nose. This traditional Chateauneuf possesses medium to full body, outstanding density, admirable ripeness, and moderate tannin. It will benefit from 1-2 years of cellaring. Enjoy it between 2005-2015.
