  Weinwisser
  WEINIWSSER:"Dunkles Weinrot, dicht in der Mitte. Harmonisches Bouquet, Schokonoten, Pflaumen, Schwarztee, zeigt eine sublime Fülle im Nasenbild. Im Gaumen stoffig, dicht, die Gerbstoffe wirken noch etwas aufrauend und so zeigt sich die Adstringenz nicht nur am Rachenraum, sondern auch auf der Zunge. Für sein Alter noch unglaublich jung wirkend. Oder ist er eventuell momentan in seiner Reife blockiert durch die weineigenen Tannine? War Publikumsliebling – wie alle Pébys!"

  The Wine Advocate
  THE WINEADVOCATE:"The luxury cuvee from Faugeres (owned by Bernard Magrez), the 2000 Peby Faugeres is the real deal. Sadly, only 500+ cases were made of this compelling St.-Emilion. An inky/blue/purple hue is accompanied by aromas of espresso roast, blueberry liqueur, smoke, and graphite. Thick and unctuously-textured with impressive purity and depth as well as full-bodied power and richness, it needs another 2-3 years of cellaring, and should last for two decades."

  James Suckling
  JAMES SUCKLING:"Nice berries and cherry character on the nose that opens up to hints of green tea and a stemmy undertone. Full-bodied, with good fruit and a soft finish. Go ahead and pull the cork on this one."

  Wine Spectator
  WINESPECTATOR:"Still youthfully rich and dark, with fig, blackberry and black cherry paste flavors layered with ganache and well-roasted espresso notes. More heft than cut as the wood dominates, though there is good loamy drive through the finish. Tasted from magnum.--Blind 2000 Bordeaux retrospective (December 2015). Drink now through 2023.
