2019 AOP Beaune 1er Cru 'Champimonts'

AMI

Regular price $165 750ml Sale

Grapes bought from a friend (certified organic). The vines are mid way up the hill in the 'Champimonts' climat, with a perfect balance between the clay base and the prominent limestone. Vinification in stainless steel vats, 100% whole bunch maceration for 15 days. Aged in old barrels for one year. No fining or filtration. 20mg/L SO2 before bottling. 

This wine is all about power combined with elegance. Deep colour. Dark cherry, dark roses and spice. The perfume is alluring, makes you sniff deep. Layered, rich, luxurious and highly perfumed. Mineral, with exotic spice. Hedonistic. In the mouth it is silky, concentrated and long. A serious wine that commands food. Black cherries, some blueberry, boysenberry, and all that spice. Extra time in bottle has done this wonders - feel free to decant and watch its many enticing layers unfold in the glass!
