Monbousquet - 2000 (750ml) yeinst3 and is worth every effort

and is worth every effort to latch on to a half bottle or so

Already gorgeous

with a slight grain to the texture and a smoky sub-note that lingers on the finish

And I want to emphasize that these changes are essentially stylistic

Monbousquet - 2000 (750ml) yeinst3 and is worth every effortAlthough still youthful, I do not think the 2000 Monbousquet will develop much more complexity. It is a seductive, rich, generously endowed effort revealing plenty of spice box, herb, black currant, kirsch, espresso, and toasty oak characteristics in a decidedly modern, but opulent, fleshy style. Enjoy this endearing, long, velvety textured St. Emilion over the next decade. Robert Parker 93 points
