Red • Medium Bodied • Pinot Noir
Description
As always this is one of the paler wines. It is very perfumed though and offers a lovely balance, heading in the ethereal direction with very long, pure fruit. This vineyard has made great strides in recent vintages. Drink 2022-2030.
Jasper Morris MW, Wine Buyer
Etienne Grivot held off until 10th September because he felt the tannins were not quite ripe before then. Sugar levels never rose too high and acidity levels are good. When asked to describe the vintage, Etienne opined that 2015 has “charm and sensuality up front, energy behind; a charming but sophisticated vintage”. The vintage continues a superb recent run from the Grivots, with Etienne as éminence grise and Mathilde taking increasing responsibility during vinification.
