Lot 180 Details
CLOS L'EGLISE (CÔTES DE CASTILLON) 2000

Pomerol.
u. bn. 2 x scuffed capsules.

Its stunning dark plum color offers up notes of caramelized red and black fruits, toffee, smoke, Asian plum sauce, sweet cherries, chocolate, and espresso. Its spectacular aromatics do not disappoint on the palate, as this multi-dimensional, highly complex, opulent wine seems to have hit a magical point in its evolution. Full-bodied, and concentrated, there is no issue with drinking this dazzling effort now, but those who own it can certainly cellar it for another 10 or more years. Drink: 2009-2025 WA 96

3 bts.    per lot $600 - $800

Realised: $900
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
