2024 Gevrey-Chambertin 'Vieilles Vignes', Domaine Coillot

This is a wine that Christophe makes especially for us, coming from several parcels from different parts of the appellation, but only from old vines. The fruit is darker than in the Marsannay and there is more overt structure and tannin, but the underlying theme is one of fruit concentration, without ever tending towards the over ripe. It retains a strong sense of freshness and grip that provides excellent definition and drive, keeping it buoyant and providing a cultured framework from within which it can age well. Drink from 2029
