Description

Chateau Palmer 2000
Margaux
Bottle (5)

Property of a dedicated and proud SoCal cellar. Many wines purchased on release, but some of the classics were purchased at various retailers around the world during business and holiday travel. All stored in a purpose-built temperature and humidity controlled cellar.

"One of the sexiest wines for drinking now and over the next 10-15 years is undoubtedly the 2000 Palmer. A blend of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Merlot, the wine has an almost exotic floral nose, soft, undulating tannins, and tremendous opulence and flesh, with a full-bodied mouthfeel, silky tannins, and loads of floral notes intermixed with blue and black fruits as well as hints of smoke and incense in its complex aromatics." (95 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, June 2010)

“The 2000 Palmer is a very different ‘beast’ than the 2001, and I use that word intentionally. This is much more feral on the nose, and quite ferrous, presenting leather and dried herbs, smudged red berry fruit, and a hint of fig that emerges with time. The brettanomyces sticks out a bit here. The palate is medium-bodied with dry tannins and good density, very earthy in style and certainly more evolved than the succeeding vintage, yet you cannot help falling for its charms. It evolves wonderfully in the glass, actually closing in a little toward the finish, and suggesting that contrary to what the nose suggests, it will repay further cellaring. Excellent.” (94 pts. Neal Martin, Vinous, June 2021)
