Chateau Gaby Grand Bordeaux Canon – Fronsac 2000 750ml

The 2000 Château du Gaby Canon-Fronsac provides more than ample testimony to the commitment to excellence brought by the new ownership at this estate and to the splendor of the outstanding 2000 vintage. This Grand Cru style claret sports a deep, nearly impenetrable robe that makes it almost as beautiful to look out as to drink. Better still is the wine’s amplifying nose that contains all the juicy black fruit flavors like blackberry, cassis, and current, which make fine claret so compelling. Mingled within the wine’s lush interior and texture are hints of spice, earth, tobacco, and new oak. Beneath all this goodness lies a core of sweet, ripe tannin that will allow this glorious Canon-Fronsac to develop further and mature for at least another ten years. Given Château du Gaby’s classic structure and relative youth, we suggest that it be opened at least one hour before serving.
