2002 Domaine des Lambrays Clos des Lambrays Grand Cru
Overall quite fresh&juvenile with a vivid acidity. Looong life ahead.
Bewitching perfume. On the palate flavors of black cherry, sous bois, spicebox, eucalyptus, black olive and a velvet&silky texture. Please open the wine 2h before.
Simply beautiful.

Good to know, and thanks for the note, Martin; I think I have one bottle and have wondered how it might be now.
I like this vintage, although it is still a bit on the youthful side … very pure fruit and fine depth.
Interestingly Thierry Brouin always preferred the 2001 to 2002 … something I cannot agree with …
01 is very good and closer to full maturity, but leaner without the intensity and depth of 02.
