Description
Chateau La Mission Haut Brion 2000Pessac-Leognan
Bottle (3)
The Orbit Collection! These wines come from the careful cellar of an elite Manhattan Hotel/Restaurant, having been assembled and curated by some of the most knowledgeable sommeliers in the nation.
"One of the wines of the vintage, the 2000 has barely budged in its evolution since it was bottled and released in 2002. After ten years in bottle, it still reveals a dense opaque purple color along with a potentially sensational bouquet of blueberries, black currants, graphite, asphalt and background oak. Extremely powerful, full-bodied and superbly concentrated with good acidity and high but round tannins, this massive La Mission-Haut-Brion should take its place among this estate’s most hallowed vintages when it hits full maturity in another one to two decades." (100 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, Aug. 2012)
“The 2000 La Mission Haut-Brion is a vintage that I have not tasted for several years. At age 21, it has retained its youthful nose of vivid black cherries, wild strawberry and iodine, and shows less of the black olive tapenade element that I noticed in its youth. The palate is medium-bodied with lithe tannins that belie the backbone of this La Mission. Beautifully balanced and quite peppery, with fine salinity, it is less sauvage than many other millennial Bordeaux, leading to a succulent, sensual finish. This is only just beginning to show what it is capable of. 13.4% alcohol.” (97 pts. Neal Martin, Vinous, February 2020)
