Score 15.5/20 · Drink 2009-2015, Jancis Robinson MW, Oct 2003

Dark, blackish crimson. Some fading at the rim. Very low-key nose with detectable VA. Full and dull and like thick-cut chunky marmalade. (JR)

Score 91/100 · Drink 2005-2016, Robert Parker, Apr 2003

This is the finest La Clotte I have ever tasted. The 2000 reveals an opaque ruby/purple color along with sweet aromas of liquid minerals, anise, plum, cassis, and smoke. Deep, rich, full-bodied, opulent, and moderately tannic, it will be at its peak between 2005-2016. Sexy stuff! A sleeper of the vintage.
