Score 93/100 · Drink 2006-2014, Pierre Rovani, Jun 2003

One of the finest reds of the vintage, Bertrand Ambroise’s dark ruby-colored 2000 Corton Le Rognet explodes from the glass with fresh plums, spices, black currants, black cherries, and hints of tar. A hugely intense, mouth-staining wine, it conquers the palate with layers of assorted black fruits, violets, as well as flavors reminiscent of asphalt and pepper. Medium to full-bodied and powerfully concentrated, it is complex, muscular, and deep. Projected maturity: 2006-2014. Importer: Robert Kacher Selections, Washington, DC; tel. (202) 832-9083

Score 89-91/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous

Full medium ruby. Reduced, wild aromas of game and nutty oak. Fat and sweet in the mouth; a bit less muscular and more complex than usual for this cuvee at this stage. Not hugely dense or structured, and thus rather pliant and '97-like. Finishes with substantial chewy, ripe tannins. The yield here was just 28 hectoliters per hectare, according to Ambroise, and the wine has 14% natural alcohol and a low pH of 3.3.
