Philippe Gavignet Nuits Saint Georges Les Chaboeufs Premier Cru 2020 750 ML

Aromas of autumn leaves, black fruits, baking spices. Plush and elegant; mouth-filling. Hand-harvested. Cold macerated for nine to 10 days; fermented on indigenous yeasts in temperature-controlled tanks. Aged in barrel (30% new oak) for 16 months. Bottled unfined and unfiltered.nHalf the vineyard was planted in 1950; the rest in 1990 and 1994. The ‘Chaboeufs’ vineyard is nestled into a cool, narrow valley; soils are brown limestone with some clay, stony and iron-rich. ‘Chaboeufs’ is meaty, black-fruited, concentrated — yet retains a cool elegance in both texture and aroma, very captivating. A great wine for the cellar.
