ROSSIGNOL-TRAPET Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles-Vignes - Cote de Nuits 2020 Bottle BIO/ORG

Description

BEST PRICE
Awarded 16.5 points by Jancis Robinson, this elegant Pinot Noir stands out in the 2020 vintage for its notable restraint. The color may not be as deep as others, but it offers a smooth profile, where the interplay of grape and stalk contributes positively to its fresh and appealing nature. Vinous scores it 87-89 points, highlighting a clean and pure bouquet filled with perfumed raspberry and wild strawberry notes, complemented by a subtle earthiness. The medium-bodied palate reveals sappy red fruit with fine acidity and gentle grip, leading to a nicely structured finish reminiscent of Morey. Aged until 2034, this wine will evolve gracefully.

ABOUT THIS WINE

JANCIS ROBINSON 16.5 points
Cask sample. Very elegant. Much more restrained than many a 2020 Pinot Noir. Not as deep in colour. Smooth, you can feel the grape and the stalks here but in a very positive, fresh and appealing way. Classy, refined, classic. (AWH)

The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes has a clean and pure bouquet with perfumed raspberry and wild strawberry scents, a subtle earthiness underneath. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, fine acidity, gentle grip with a nicely structured, Morey-like finish. Fine. - By Neal Martin on January 2022
