{"product_id":"chateau-monbousquet-saint-emilion-grand-cru-2000","title":"Chateau Monbousquet, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, 2000","description":"Gérard Perse acquired Monbousquet in 1993—his first vineyard purchase in what would become a Saint-Émilion empire. Working with consultant Michel Rolland, Perse shifted the estate toward ripe, concentrated wines with firm extraction and judicious oak, pursuing the power and finesse of 1950s-60s Bordeaux. The 2000 was produced from extremely low yields of 28-30 hectoliters per hectare, aged sur lie, and bottled unfined and unfiltered. The 2000 shows spice box, herb, black currant, kirsch, espresso and toasty oak in a decidedly modern but opulent, fleshy style. Now 25+ years old, this represents Perse's visionary modernist approach in a legendary Bordeaux vintage. Expect seductive richness with long, velvety texture—considerable complexity developed through maturation. A window into early 2000s Right Bank ambition at full evolution. Perse passed in 2025, but his legacy endures.","brand":"Private","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50673992499257,"sku":"NYC-[PVT]-PCSOCTOB1026-100626-9-6","price":129.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0125\/1518\/0601\/files\/IMG-4948.jpg?v=1791579872","url":"https:\/\/nyc.flatiron-wines.com\/products\/chateau-monbousquet-saint-emilion-grand-cru-2000","provider":"Flatiron Wines \u0026 Spirits NYC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
