Over two days. Moderate bricking. Light to medium body. Still showing medium plus acid, and holding form beautifully. Good to go now or after another decade. Delicious!
Very good for the price. Medium bodied, subtle fruit (berry)
Critic tasting note: (2001 vintage) “Traditionally on the sweet side of the LBVs this 01 has an enticing floral, liquorice aroma with bits of spicy, dried fig and jammy plum fruit. Similar structure and flavours of black cherry, plums, tea leaves all in a creamier less traditional LBV style. Ready to drink all winter. (Anthony Gismondi and Stuart Tobe).” – Gismondi on Wine
