- Givry 1er cru A Vigne Rouge - 2015

Givry 1er cru A Vigne Rouge 2015

Cask sample. Tremendous fruit complexity on the nose: rosehip, cranberry, blackberry, raspberry - very generous and open-knit. The palate is reasonably firm - but very much ready to drink, and that youthful fruit is really delicious. Long on the finish, with some fennel and bitter herb character. A lovely depiction of a good vintage, and GV.
