A wine of considerable nobility and breed, the 2001 Beausejour Duffau possesses a classic perfume of crushed stones and blueberries. This delicate, elegant offering is clearly a wine of terroir. Its subtle nature, pure, stylish flavors, and striking aromatics make it easy to dismiss in a blind peer group tasting, but do not make that mistake. There is a lot going on here, and the wine’s personality as well as complexity are stunning.
Ripe fruit aromas of plums with hints of leather follow through to a medium-bodied palate, with fine tannins and a fresh finish. Silky. Refined.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 18/20 points.
