2000 vintage. From Jay. 2000 Bartolo Mascarello - Brief Note from Galloni Historical Retrospective Held in London April 26, 2016. Black fruits, Black cherry with some menthol. Good sweetness on the entry. Good acidity. Weak on the rear pallet. Finish is somewhat weak. Nice ruby colour. More in the style of what Maria Teresa's father than her. Fruit is much more muted. It has integrated well over the years from the initial barnyard aromatics that it displayed when initially bottled. Drink no to 2020. 89/100 — 10 years ago
This is a very good & fun Cremant. Perfect for summer and only around 8 degrees alcohol. — 10 years ago
I've always loved this 2nd grow. It's Cabernet dominated blend ages slowly allowing older vintages to taste impeccable. 2004 was not a banner year for Bordeaux, but it offered good values on wines typically selling for over $100. While not my favorite Pichon Lalande, the glass was elegant and refined. Cheers! — 11 years ago

Awesome 97 Insignia. The wine of the night and there were plenty others. Sharing this with all on our Monday night dinner group. I would say 100 points because it was. Guys like Rob Parker recently upgraded this to a 100pts. Big rich full and elegant stand out on this 20 yr old wine. Thanks David for giving me this Awesome Beauty. CB — 9 years ago

Smooth but with a nice spice. Long finish. Not too oaky. — 9 years ago
Super-weird bottle. Mid-shoulder, crumbly cork, and the colour of freshly pressed strawberry juice - extremely pale as slightly cloudy! The immediate scent was quite off-putting but after 30 minutes it stormed back! Scents of autumn mulch, burning vine roots, sour cherries, and raspberry compote. A weird sourness and heady acidity on the front of the palette but it still keeps together well. Clearly badly kept but still really interesting to drink! A true testament to The quality of Mouton under the stewardship of the late Baron. I wonder if this is what some of the better kept bottles might be like in 100 years' time!? — 10 years ago
17.5/20 (94/100)
Сладко-цветочный, яркий, молодой. Ягодный леденец, малина, спелая клубника, смородина, яркий ягодный аромат, немного шоколада, какао, болгарский перец на гриле. Ярко, взрывно но не тяжело и очень свежее. Большой потенциал.

Sitting on the roof watching the sunset. This wine has a nice aftertaste cherryish and a slight hint of chocolate. Its smooth and refreshing, I will drink it again. — 9 years ago
