Bordeaux 2001 Sauternes & Barsacs

One of the Greatest Barsac and Sauternes Vintages Since 1945!

How do these grapes make such amazing wine?The harvest of 2001 has blessed the beautiful Barsac and Sauternes regions with one of its greatest vintages ever! Lovers of these outstanding and unique world class wines will be thrilled by the level of excellence attained in this extraordinary vintage, which seems destined to be a legend. This is confirmed in Robert Parker's Bordeaux Issue #140 of The Wine Advocate, where he states: "2001 is undeniably the finest vintage since the fabulous trilogy of 1988, 1989, and 1990."

We tasted through all the major chateaux during our Bordeaux spring tasting trip and experienced first hand, the remarkable richness, depth of flavor, massive power, and incredible balance of these wines. This is clearly a great vintage, a happening for the 2001 Barsac and Sauternes wines comparable to the significance of the great Red Bordeaux 2000 Vintage!

Considering the extraordinary quality of this vintage and the huge praise from Wine Spectator, Robert Parker, and the rest of the world press, opening prices for 2001 Barsacs and Sauternes are outstanding!
