2000 Château Le Bon Pasteur, France, Bordeaux, Pomerol, Wine Review
At the time, this property was owned by Michel Rolland and his brother. Purple/ruby in color, mostly opaque and bright. The nose is very nice with cherries, black cherries, coffee, slight chocolate, char and spice. Medium bodied. Light to medium tannins. On the palate, black cherries, cherries, cigar box and slight chocolate. Good finish. This seems to be about at peak with a nice depth and complexity. Well stored bottles should be able to go another ten years. It is lovely on its own but better with food. Steak au Poivre would be a nice choice.
