Critic tasting note: (2000 vintage) "A quick splash decant was all this beauty needed to discover its rich, ripe, full-bodied, concentrated and ready to go character. The wine is supple, deep, dark and as I mentioned, for a 2000, it’s delivering a lot of pleasure with its multiple layers of lusciously-textured fruit. Most of the tannin has melted away allowing this stunner to shine. 96 Points" - Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider

Dispersed over 80 hectares of Saint-Julien and split into several groups, our vineyard reflects all the richness and diversity of the appellation. Within this, to the northwest of the appellation, are the 20 hectares of Chateau Moulin Riche, forming a single block for a unique expression of the terroir. Planted Grape Varieties: 63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 7% Petit Verdot, 5% Cabernet Franc. Average Vine Age 38 years.

Once the grapes arrive at the vat house, they are sorted twice: first by hand on tables before destemming, then a second time by optical sorting machine before crushing to eliminate any vegetal matter. Pre-fermentation cold macerations for about a week. From 2018: non-saccharomyces yeast is added to the must, thus eliminating the traditional use of SO2 at this stage. Pump-overs are carried out daily for each of our tanks until the end of alcoholic fermentation.

Tasted: Mar 2022
A quick splash decant was all this beauty needed to discover its rich, ripe, full-bodied, concentrated and ready to go character. The wine is supple, deep, dark and as I mentioned, for a 2000, it’s delivering a lot of pleasure with its multiple layers of lusciously-textured fruit. Most of the tannin has melted away allowing this stunner to shine. 96 Points
2000 Vintage
Tasted: Jun 2019
Mittleres Rubin, schöner Glanz, intensive Nase, feine würze, angenehm komplex, mit roten von gekochten Kirschen, sehr schöne Komplexität, am Gaumen reife und zugänglich, das saftig, schöne Säure, wunderbare Frucht, wirkt fast harmlos und hat doch eine sehr gute Struktur, das macht heute Spass, kann aber auch reifen, aktuell sehr schön zu trinken, ein zugängliches Jahr, Jetzt bis 2030
2000 Vintage
Tasted: Mar 2015
Dark ruby garnet colour with purple reflections, broad brightening on the rim, ochre reflections. Dark berries with mocha roast aromas in the background, tobacco nuances, but also some cassis and blackberry notes, multi-faceted, attractive bouquet. Full-bodied, dark berries, firm, well-integrated tannins, finesse-rich acidity, shows good fruitiness and length, has great ageing potential.
2000 Vintage
Tasted: Dec 2011
This has spices, meat, dark and ripe fruits, and a light sultana character. Full-bodied, tight and firm with a beautiful freshness and great length with notes of licorice and citrus skin. Fascinating stuff. Leave this alone for at least a couple of years. Should be better after 2012.

2000 Vintage
Tasted: Mar 2004
A solid wine, well structured, with soft but supple tannins that frame a core of blackberry, cassis, toast, coffee, anise and herb notes. The finish has a hint of sage and thyme, ending with moderate length. Good Bordeaux from a good year. Kosher
2000 Vintage
Tasted: Jan 2003
(2003) Last time I gave the usually reliable L-P a lowish score of 88 and said "I don't think this showed too well....needs to be re-tasted". Much bloodier, gamier perfume here with a meaty richness, cedar and blackurrant aromas. On the palate it is concentrated black fruit which drives this wine, and it is firm and fleshy with a muscular breadth and depth and a meaty, tannic finish. Much more like it, and a fine Château Clerc-Milon, 5th growth Pauillac 2000, Bordeaux, France, Dry Red

Superb!

2000 Vintage Saved: 25-Dec-2023
I've seen some, somewhat negative reviews for this vintage. Well I totally disagree, this wine is in my opinion in perfect shape right now.
Still medium to deep ruby colour.
The nose is classic mature Bordeaux, right in the middle of having good fruit but developing those tertiary.
Lovely tannins.
