From the outstanding 2001 vintage and scoring 93/100 Parker points, "The sensational 2001 Vacqueyras Cuvee Lopy is a candidate for this appellation’s wine of the vintage.

Powerful and rich, with layers of concentration, and a seamless integration of acidity, tannin, and alcohol, this huge, spectacular Vacqueyras is impeccably well-balanced. The acidity should ensure even greater fragrance as the wine matures, but for readers who are fortunate enough to latch on to a few bottles, it requires 1-3 years of cellaring" Drink now - 2033.
