00 Le Moine

2000 Lucien Le Moine, Bonnes Mares;
Ruby, towards brick rim. Clean strawberry, some earthy and leafy undertones, vanilla and even herbs. Starting to show pedigree, increadible structure, some tannins needs time still, but I feel they will integrate perfectly, give it five years or so, fresh acidity, very long finish. My oldest LLM, and I have been worried about the excessive oak, but this one is showing that things seems to go together in the end. 90
