88 Points

Monday, May 4, 2015 - Terroir-istes International - France, Bordeaux 2000 Vintage (Groot Constantia): (Tasted Blind): Mid ruby in colour, the bouquet squire shy but slowly opens to reveal lemon, blackcurrant and blackberry. However, there is a hint of volatility that creeps in too.
The entry is elegant with some lemon freshness, firmly texture and linear shape. It lacks depth and concentration but has a muscular, sinewy feel to it with some flesh. The tannin is quite coarse, and there is a sharper edge from the acid (this may be some VA, too?) but a classic older-style Claret.
Score: 88-89/100"
