Seemingly fully mature, Michel and Dany Rolland’s seductive 2000 Bon Pasteur reveals a dark garnet/plum color along with a big, sweet kiss of soy, cedar, roasted herbs, blackberries, caramelized black cherries, and hints of smoke and kirsch. This fleshy, full-bodied Pomerol reveals low acidity, a savory, broad mid-palate, and a decade of life ahead of it.
Dark and ripe, with tar, blackberry and wet earth aromas. Full-bodied and chewy, with loads of fruit and a long finish. A big juicy red. Best Bon-Pasteur in years. Best after 2009. 2,500 cases made. James Suckling,Wine Spectator 2003

About the producer
Famed winemaking consultant Michel Rolland is synonymous with this estate. The vines here were purchased by his grandparents and he ran the property from 1979. Although Rolland still makes the wine today, he sold the estate in 2013.
