Twenty five years is a great moment of review a classic vintage – most of the great wines will have
reached their peak, but not yet slipped into decline, and the distance of time also allows us to
appreciate the vintage itself in historical context. The vintage itself threw plenty of challenges at the
vigneron (especially for the whites), the vintage is today of high interest to the Burgundy enthusiast.
As Allen noted, ‘While the ’01 reds were not charming initially, from the beginning we viewed these as
classically styled Burgundies of elegance, grace, refinement and transparency.’ Over dinner at 1929 by
Guillaume Galliot we will take a deep dive into the 2001 vintage through the lens of some of the most
iconic and high performing domaines (Leroy, DRC, Roumier…), and a wide range of top vineyards –
mostly grand cru, led by the master of the subject, Allen Meadows.
