I tasted this year with Jean-Claude Sabon's sonx000D Thierry, who has become increasingly involved in vinifying this estate's wines. Thierry described the young 2001s as stylishx000D wines that are not especially powerful despite their relatively highx000D alcohol. There was great consistency ofx000D ripeness among the family's parcels of vines, he maintained. But there will not be a separate Cuvee dux000D Papet, said Thierry, as removing a portion of the best fruit would havex000D compromised the estate's regular Chateauneuf bottling. (A Peter Vezan Selection; importers includex000D Ideal Wines, Medford, MA; Michael Skurnik Wines, Syosset, NY; and North Berkeleyx000D Imports, Berkeley, CA)
