Maxime Crotet, Bourgogne Rouge 2024 Rare Barrel-aged Sauvignon Blanc from vinesPlace: Burgundy, France Grape: Pinot Noir Vibe: Elegant duh! From a plot in Cheilly les Maranges from the upper part of the parcel, an average of 65 year old vines. All about elegance. Silky and smooth, this supplies all the fine red fruit and tea like spice were after. Perfectly balanced and ready to go from the offset. That said, I'll be stashing a few away for a rainy day as the upside potential here is looking great. ABV: 12%
