The 2000 Les Carmes Haut-Brion is a blend of 55% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. This is a vintage that I have not tasted since just after bottling. It’s beginning to brick on the rim but still displays good depth of color. The nose is a little rustic and slightly animally, showing saddle leather, broom, undergrowth/peat and black fruit. There’s good intensity here, but maybe just a touch of brettanomyces. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy, quite dry tannins. Muscular and grippy with a balsamic-tinged finish, the 2000 packs quite a punch, although it does have bucolic charm. I would drink bottles now, although I suspect this will remain solid for the next 12–15 years.
