Then & Now - 2000 & 2020 Château Bouscassé


2000 Château Bouscassé
A deep, nicely mature nose with notes of coffee, dried black currants, dried meat and vintage leather. A very fine warmth. Even better on day two.
The taste is open and warm with fine black fruit, notes of tobacco, leather and autumn leaves. Very long.
92p   (tasted 2026/06)

2020 Château Bouscassé
A rich, juicy nose with notes of asphalt, iron, tobacco and plums. Very, very good.
The taste is big and bold with upfront plum fruit, dark chocolate, graphite and a long, fiery finish. Needs a couple of years in the cellar.
89p   (tasted 2026/06)
