The 2000 Rasteau Fleur de Confiance (15.5% natural alcohol) is monumental. Black/purple in color, dense, full-bodied, and loaded with extract, with high levels of cassis, blackberries, glycerin as well as tannin (well-hidden), this fat, chewy enormously endowed 2000 will drink well for 15+ years. Sadly, there are only 7,000 bottles.
