Mark,

I did try the 2000. About 1 to 2 months ago I posted notes on a tasting of
seconds, 1982-2000. Wasn't a tasting that had be running to buy more seconds
overall, but the 2000 Bahans and 2000 Haut Bages Averous showed well.Well
enough that I bought 2 bottles of the Bahans the next day (Rochambeau had for
$37, decent if not extraordinary price- think they still had as of last week).

2000 Bahans Haut Brion
Beautifully balanced, flowers on nose, ripe (yet almost bittersweet) black
fruit. B+/A-
