Description

Here are two very special bottles of wine you will want to add to your own cellar. The first is a 2000 Chateau Mouton Rothschild, considered an epic year for production. Robert Parker rated this wine with 97 points and wrote, "...this blockbuster will be exceptionally long-lived. A blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon and 14% Merlot...dense, chewy with tremendous purity and density in addition to obvious toasty oak." The art work on the bottle is considered to be a "brilliant achievement" and said to be worth half as much empty as full!

The second bottle is a 2000 Chateau Haut-Brion. Rated 98 by Robert Parker and described as "...a wine of intensity, authority, and measured restraint. A supremely elegant offering. Its complexity is followed up in the aromas that suddenly burst forth all at once; a woody hint of fine polished oak, mulberry jam, cherry pits, a touch of blackcurrant, and the bittersweet of mango. The finish is never ending...Exceptional bottle."
