Gevrey-Chambertin 2009

Grape Variety : Pinot Noir

Soil : Mix of Clay and limestone

Site : Gevrey Chambertin is located in the "Côte de Nuits". The grapes stem from a selected plot in the northern part of Appellation "Gevrey Chambertin" located on a mid slope and bordering the Premiers Crus. The grapes are sourced from a partner winegrower. Picking of the grapes by our teams.

The Vintage 2009 : After a cold winter and a beautiful spring, the hot summer was interrupted by stormy intervals which fortuitously took place when needed and thus facilitated growth and good maturation of the grapes. Harvest began early September with excellent weather conditions. Aging in oak during 15 months.

Tasting : Dark ruby colour. Very refreshing aromas of red berries and violet. Delicate vanilla note. Generous, complex and well-balanced. Tight texture. Elegant tannins and well-integrated oak note. Long aftertaste.

Food pairing : Game (pheasant), poultry and all the classic cheeses (Epoisses, Langres).
