A blend of 78% Merlot, 17% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2000 Beausejour Duffau-Lagarrosse is pale to medium garnet-brick in color. It features fragrant notes of sandalwood, cigar box, and potpourri, giving way to a core of dried cherries, prunes, and Chinese five spice. The medium-bodied palate is so, so elegant and graceful, delivering exotic spices and dried flower sparkles, with dried cranberries in the background and a powdery texture, finishing with a refreshing mineral lift.

Varietal

Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

Deep ruby-hued with no real bricking in the color, the 2000 Château Beausejour (Duffau-Lagarrosse) is based on 78% Merlot, 17% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon, raised in 50% new barrels. It has an intense nose of ripe red and black fruits, green tobacco, truffle, spice, and an almost meaty, viande-like character. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, with a nicely balanced mouthfeel, still present yet largely integrated tannins, and a great finish. This complex, nuanced, exotic Saint-Emilion is drinking at its peak yet should have another 10-12 years of prime drinking before a gradual decline. Drink 2026-2038.

I often lament the fact that only the 1990 and 2009 are wines that fully showcase this extraordinary terroir. However, the 2000 is no “Ugly Betty,” so to speak. It showed extremely well in the tastings, with the tell-tale notes of flowers, crushed rock, blueberry and camphor well-displayed. Full-bodied, rich, long, and just beginning to shed its cloak of tannin, this is quite an impressively endowed Beausejour-Duffau that can be drunk in 1-2 years or cellared for another 25 or more.

Beautiful and sweet. A joy to taste. Lovely berry, floral and hints of vanilla on the nose and palate. Medium- to full-bodied, with fine tannins and a caressing, delicious finish. Best after 2010. 1,665 cases made.

Bright red-ruby. Extravagantly ripe nose combines redcurrant, coffee bean, five-spice powder, stewed tomato and exotic oak scents; slight resiny whiff of surmaturite Then silky and bright in the mouth, with plump, dense red berry flavors framed by healthy acidity. Finishes long and broad, with chewy, ripe tannins. This has been nicely opened up by its elevage.
