Vincent Girardin Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes, Cote de Nuits Red 2019The Gevrey Chambertin wine has high color, is intensively aromatic, evoking blackberries and other small red and black fruits. A well built wine, combining blending tannins with abundant mellowness.

Rich while still keeping crispness

yet a surprising freshness

This feels like it has too much of everything at the moment

date and warehouse number

as well as some light vanilla

The coastal winds driven through the Petaluma Gap and across the rolling hills of Carneros each afternoon create rare growing conditions

lightly spiced pastry and stony

concentrated and hot with alcohol

tangy black cherry and bittersweet chocolate

Crisp entry leads into a striking softness and creamy texture

and cedar with slightly toasty notes

citrus fruit
