Vieux Chateau Landon 2000
Well, 15 years was worth the wait ……..
The 2000 Bordeaux Vintage was fine on both banks, and all price categories.
I was stunned that a $30 dollar bottle of wine aged so well and REWARDED me for the patience in the cellar.
I drove down the cottage last night on a “solo mission” with one of the dogs, taking some tools and fall cleanup supplies. I got my work done and opened up a 2000 Bordeaux, to accompany some seared scallop risotto
“That level of consistency in 2000 Bordeaux wine is one of the key hallmarks to a great Bordeaux wine vintage. The wines are deep, ripe, rich, concentrated, flamboyant and expressive. The tannins are ripe and round. The wines are built to age, yet their charm allows them to enjoyed in their relative youth.”
Back in town, I have to ready the snowblower ……..
