2000 Cabernet Sauvignon, Chateau Montelena Estate
This wine looks mature, but you'd never believe it is 24 years old. There are abundant and complex aromas of dark fruit, with blackcurrants dominating. The flavors follow the aromas. Tannins are fully resolved and everything is in balance. Long finish. Power and elegance. I'd say it's just coasted up to its plateau of maturity and will continue to give great pleasure for another twenty years or so. Triple Curly.
