| -Rated 93 in 2002 - An aromatically shy wine, the 2002 Vin de Table Chavignol Les Culs de Beaujeu (“Cul” is a regional term for round hills) is broad, rich, feminine, and oily-textured. Its medium-bodied, dense personality reveals loads of velvety layers of pears, sea salt, apples, and tangy minerals. Its bold core of fruit is seamlessly carried through its amazingly long, expressive finish. This concentrated, immensely endowed effort should be drunk over the next 6-7 years. - - Robert Parker. |
