Lalou Bize-Leroy's 2001 Richebourg Grand Cru is drinking brilliantly, entirely transcending early estimates of the vintage's quality. Soaring from the glass with a captivating bouquet of wilted rose petals, peonies, exotic spices, sweet red berries, plums and vine smoke, it's full-bodied, satiny and sensual, with an enveloping core of vibrant fruit, melting tannins and a long, pungently perfumed finish. It's at the beginning of a glorious plateau of maturity.
