Somm Note
Winemaker Notes
Lovely bright hue. Clean on the nose, with considerable aromatic intensity for a second-label wine. Initially, lively fresh fruit flavors dominate, followed by the cherry and smoky notes typical of Graves wines from Pessac. On the palate, one is struck at first by the wine’s full-bodied balance and then, quite quickly, the firm tannins coat the mouth agreeably.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
A beautiful, soft, richly fruity wine with silky tannins, loads of blue fruits, and hints of smoky barbecue and graphite, the 2000 La Chapelle de La Mission is fleshy, evolved, and complex, a top-notch success that gets a slight upgrade from my original review. Drink it over the next 5-10 years.

Wine Spectator
Tight and solid, with tobacco, berry, chocolate and vanilla throughout. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins and a delicious finish. Best after 2008.
