"Deep ruby/purple in color, with a sweet nose of black currants, earth, licorice, and mineral, the 2000 is relatively powerful and dense for the normally restrained and elegant Beychevelle. Medium to full-bodied, dense, and chewy, it is showing even better out of bottle than it was from cask. While it appears to be the finest example made at Beychevelle since the 1989 and 1982, patience will be required. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2020."

"A successful effort from this irregular performer, the deep ruby/purple-colored 2000 Beychevelle exhibits elegant floral and black currant fruit intermixed with minerals, smoke, and earth. Medium-bodied, long, subtle, and nuanced, it will be its apogee between 2005-2016."

"The finest Beychevelle since 1989, this floral-scented wine offers notes of blueberries, red currants, minerals, and spice. Restrained, subtle, measured, but beautifully rich, delicate, and fruity, it needs 2-4 years of cellaring, and should evolve gracefully for two decades. How reassuring it is to see Beychevelle produce a wine of such stature."
