這年的植物生長情況相對較為提早，平均氣溫較高，降雨量正常。 5月底和6月初的降水令葡萄藤易於生黴，但酒莊的技術人員始終勤於保護葡萄藤，工作到位。夏末極美，8月和9月內為期幾週的干熱天氣使葡萄得以充分成熟。

品酒筆記（灌瓶時）：
酒裙呈極深色澤，帶有些許紫色。芳香豐富，醇厚濃郁，優雅洗練，令人唇齒生香。單寧味十分顯著，持久性驚人。
A blend of 93.3% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Merlot, the wine still has a dark ruby/purple color and an extraordinarily youthful nose of graphite, black currants, sweet, unsmoked cigar tobacco, and flowers. The wine is rich, medium to full-bodied, but has that ethereal elegance and purity that is always Lafite. I originally predicted that it would first reach maturity in 2011, but I would push that back by 5-7 years now, although it has 50-60 years of life in front of it. Owners of this beauty are probably best advised to forget it for 5 years. Tasted next to a 1996 several days after the 2000 tasting, the 1996, which is a perfect wine, was far closer to full maturity than the 2000. RP
