WINEMAKER'S NOTE
"Absolutely fantastic. This is one of the most exciting young reds I have tasted in a long, long time. It shows intense aromas of berries, currants, and minerals, with hints of mint. Full-bodied and packed with fruit and tannins, its long finish is refined and silky. A benchmark for the vintage. Las Cases has always wanted to make first growth quality in a top notch vintage, and it certainly did in 2000. Best after 2012."-Wine Spectator
