Description

2000 Château Léoville Poyferré, St Julien, BordeauxMedium garnet brick in color, the 2000 Leoville Poyferre rocks up with bold notions of cigar box, baked cherries, dried mulberries, and creme de cassis with hints of eucalyptus, Chinese five spice, sandalwood, and leather. Medium bodied, with lovely freshness and spicy layers defining the mature palate, it has a lightly chewy texture and long savory finish. 93 100, Lisa Perrotti Brown MW, The Wine Independent, June 2022

fresh hazelnut and honeysuckle aromas

ripe raspberry fruits

Mid-orangey pink

beguiling pure fruit and stunning focus on the finish

but it has the legs for ageing if desired

the Bulle de Rosé is an enjoyable drink

This was closed and hard to read a few years after release and over the following decade or more

holding its own among its older and more established siblings in the Frapin range

with a little Chardonnay

Over the following four years

A fourth consecutive vintage release might hint at an over-abundance of Moët’s flagship brand but the 2005 fits in neatly with the three previous contrasting years and no doubt those still to come in what is proving to be a stellar decade for fine Vintage Champagnes
