Score 90/100 · Drink 2005-2014, Pierre Rovani, Feb 2003

Caro, the new joint-venture of Nicolas Catena and Lafite's Baron de Rothschild has fashioned an outstanding debut wine, the medium to dark ruby-colored 2000 Caro. This "secret blend" of Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon reveals tangy red and black currant aromas intermingled with hints of grilled oak. Offering lovely depth of fruit, its fresh herb and blackberry-flavored personality is highly focused, well-detailed, and elegant. This wine is not made in the supple, generous, blockbuster style of the Catena wines, rather it is lace-like, nuanced, and reveals a firm edge to its finish. Projected maturity: 2005-2014. Importer: Pasternak Wine Imports, Greenwich, CT; tel. (203) 531-3740
