Score 91/100 · Drink 2005-2018, Robert Parker, Feb 2003
The elegant 2000 Vieux Telegraphe La Crau possesses 14.8% alcohol, along with a deep ruby/purple color, charming, rich, fruitiness, and firm tannin in the finish. With loads of freshness, copious quantities of pepper, seaweed, and black fruit characteristics, and a distinctive minerality, this full-bodied, sweet 2000 requires 2-3 years of cellaring; it should age well for 15-16 years. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2018. Importer: Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, Berkeley, CA; tel. (510) 524-1524
