"92-94 points: This is very jammy and delicious. Very ripe berry aromas, with hints of roses. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a medium, caressing finish."

"94-96 points: Under the Comte de Neipperg, this property has produced many fabulous wines over recent vintages. While it is difficult to pick a favorite, the 2000 is unquestionably one of the greatest Canon la Gaffelieres yet produced. It comes across as more classic yet less exotic than some of its older siblings. The concentration levels are phenomenal. The opaque blue/purple-colored 2000 Canon La Gaffelieres offers a fabulous perfume of roasted espresso, chocolate fudge, jammy blackberry and cassis fruit, smoke vanillin, licorice, and Asian spices. It possesses terrific viscosity, an enormously concentrated mouthfeel, yet good freshness as well as delineation, multiple layers of flavor, and a spectacular blockbuster finish. This is a profoundly great wine! Anticipated maturity: 2002-2020."
