Givry 1er cru Crausot 2015
Here the ripe but fresh nose offers just a bit more elegance with its array of lemon peel, white orchard fruit, floral and soft spice nuances. There is excellent punch on the seductively textured flavors that possess the best delineation of the three whites, all wrapped in a slightly more complex and persistent finish. Lovely.

Burghound.com is the result of a nearly lifelong passion for the wines of Burgundy. For more than 30 years, I have been collecting the wines and visiting the region. Each year I spend nearly five months visiting, researching, tasting, exploring and evaluating. Burgundy is my obsession really. Expanding on my coverage of the coveted pinot noir grape, each issue provides continuous coverage of both Oregon and California pinot noir, with rotating coverage of Champagne and occasional special reports from other pinot producing regions.
