150cl ⏐ Gevrey Chambertin Vieilles Vignes 2018, Sylvie Esmonin, magnum

Burghound.com

(75+ year old vines). This too is a very ripe wine in the context of the 2017 vintage with its lightly wooded nose of plum, spice, earth and forest floor. As usual, there is more power and mid-palate concentration to the sappy medium-bodied flavors that also exude a discreet minerality onto the more complex and slightly more structured finale. As it usually is, this is an excellent Gevrey villages and well worth your interest.
