Undoubtedly the most impressive wine I have ever tasted from Brown, the dense ruby/purple-colored 2000 offers up excellent aromas of cassis, red currants, cedar, and tobacco. Medium-bodied, with super concentration as well as purity, power combined with elegance, and a moderately tannic finish, this is a stylish classic Graves as well as a sleeper of the vintage. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2015.
