Tuesday, February 16, 2016 - Monthly Tuesday group #006: Bordeaux 2001 versus 2002 (By VD): Beautiful, expressive and luxurious bouquet with creamy dark forest fruits, some smoke, cedar and sweet licorice. On the palate dark berries like cassis, chocolate, vanilla, coffee, some (bell) pepper. Good acidity and soft tannin with still a good bite. Very good length. Overall a beautiful and creamy wine which is about halfway its maturity stage and might still improve a bit. Tasting the 2001 and 2002 blind beside each other I am not sure which one I prefer. The 2002 is definitely a great success for the vintage. I scored both wines 91.
