Product Description
RP100 "Now extinct, as this tiny 2.6-acre micro-vineyard was absorbed into Chateau Pavie, the 2000 La Clusiere (100% Merlot) was bestowed a perfect score seven years ago, and I see no reason to change that as it remains a monumental effort. Aromas of creme de cassis, blueberry liqueur, charcoal, licorice, and graphite are followed by a stunningly rich, full-bodied, elegant, pure, gentle giant of a wine. Approaching full maturity, it should age effortlessly for another 30+ years. Kudos to proprietor Gerard Perse." RP Jun 2010
Robert Parker writes, "A sensational blockbuster, this 100% Merlot possesses both class and sophistication. The opaque black/purple color is followed by aromas of vanilla, blackberry liqueur, minerals, overripe cherries, chocolate, and espresso. Remarkably seamless in the mouth, with abundant tannin lurking beneath the surface it is deep and exotic. It is a masterpiece!" Published: Apr 22, 2001
