Score 88/100 · Drink 2003-2007, Robert Parker, Dec 2003
The 2000 Merlot (aged 18 months on its lees, and bottled without fining or filtration) is a success for this troublesome vintage. A deep ruby/purple color is followed by aromas of melted chocolate, smoke, and earth. With good depth, power, fat, and a big, chunky black cherry bouquet as well as flavors, it will provide pleasure over the next 3-4 years. Tel. (707) 942-6605; Fax (707) 942-6019
