Château Péby Faugeres--Vintage 2001
Saint-Emilion, grand cru classé
Tasting Note: Produced from a south-sloping parcel considered to be the finest sub-plot of the Faugeres vineyard, this luxury cuvée has been fabulous since its debut vintage in 1998. The dense purple-coloured, medium to full-bodied 2001 Peby Faugeres boasts a flamboyant perfume of espresso roast, melted chocolate, camphor, blackberries, creme de cassis liqueur, and a hint of sweet toasty oak. This opulent, full-bodied, concentrated offering possesses ripe, well-integrated tannin. Give it 3-5 years of cellaring, and drink it over the following 15-16. By the way, the 1999 is drinking beautifully, but the 2000 is closed at present. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate # 153 Jun 2004.
