How does V&B Saint James Brut de fût 2001 taste?
Powerful, fruity old-school Saint James
If you enjoy Neisson Full Proof or other serious old agricoles, this will likely hit the spot—similar dry fruit and oak, but with that punchy Saint James edge.
Beginners or anyone sensitive to high ABV, aggressive wood influence, or the drier, slightly solventy style typical of old cask strength agricoles.

This was the winner of my small Saint James tasting!😎 Delicious nose with a hint of glue mixed with various fruits in an oaky barrel🤤🤤 This wonderfull adventure continues in mouth😏 I found a really light note of bicycle tube, I guess. Fantastic 😜😎 The finish on this one is really fruity and oaky without being bitter or astringend! The barrel and ABV is integrated very well. Conclusion of my tasting: 2006<<<2005<2001 (Roberto style 😜)
Wow unglaublich lecker. Total komplex und für einfach ein richtig richtig gute Mischung aus Frucht und Fass. Die Nase hat mich sofort abgeholt. Herzlichen Glückwunsch an jeden der hiervon eine Flasche hat.
Al naso è esplosivo con smalto, frutti rossi e altri tropicali(banana, papaya), frutti secchi(albicocche, fichi, datteri), spezie, fiori, legno, tostatura,cioccolato, un po' di pelle e con un finale dolce, particolarmente ottimo e complesso. Al palato si ripresenta il legno e le spezie(pepe soprattutto), la pelle e la tostatura seguite da un tocco floreale e agrumato, dal tabacco e i frutti rossi+mela con uno sfondo dolce e sapido. Nel retrogusto resta secco, fruttato, legnoso e dopo alcuni minuti terroso. Nel bicchiere vuoto legno e arrostito. Grazie a Dr.Django Oscilla tra 8.9.e 9.
