Ch Croix de Labrie - St. Emilion
France
There are only 9,000 bottles of the big, blockbuster 2000. It boasts superb purity along with the essence of cassis and black cherry liqueur-like fruit intermixed with graphite and new oak notes. Sweet, layered, and luxuriously rich, with a wealth of fruit and glycerin, this stunning St.-Emilion should be drinkable young, yet age nicely for 15+ years. This is the ultimate garage wine, or as the French call it, vin de salon, since the five-barrel production is kept in proprietor Puzio's living room! This is great stuff, but nearly impossible to find. Does anybody out there have some to sell? RP-94 (Subject to Availability) CRDL00
