Château Chasse-Spleen is a wonderful Left Bank property in the district of Moulis-en-Médoc. From the excellent 2000 vintage, this is a classically broad-shouldered and firm release, composed mostly of Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and Petit Verdot. Now in its peak drinking window, this offers classical notes of black cherry, blackberry, wild herbs and tobacco. Decanting is recommended.
89 Robert Parker
A classic, muscular, rich yet elegant effort made in a medium to full-bodied, concentrated style, the 2000 Chasse-Spleen possesses abundant quantities of minerals, earth, black cherry, and cassis fruit. It will need 4-5 years of cellaring, and will keep for two decades. - Robert M. Parker, Jr.

Good medium ruby. Aromatic nose combines crystallized blackberry, cassis, shoe polish and mint. Tight, firm and rather ungiving in the mouth, with moderately ripe, muscular flavors of cassis, licorice and shoe polish. Doesn't quite deliver the flavor interest promised by the nose.Stephen Tanzer1st May 2001

Excellent colour and concentrated but subtle nose with tealeaf aromas. Healthy yeoman wine with lots there. Quite a velvety start and tannins hidden particularly well. (JR)
