Chateau Chauvin - 2000 (750ml) Size:750ml Wine Spectator - 93 pointsA superb wine, this opaque purple colored effort boasts a vividly pure nose of graphite, melted licorice, creme de cassis, espresso, and wet stones backed up by subtle, high quality, spicy, new oak. Multi layered, full bodied, dense, concentrated, and pure, with sweet tannin and superb length, this future classic will be at its best between 2008 2019. Robert Parker 92 points
