Description
Monthélie sits next to Volnay and shares its hillside, its soils, and much of its character, but not its price tag. Chanson's Clos Gauthey is a premier cru, and this vintage produced wines of lovely floral fragrances and beautiful fruit expression. This wine can be enjoyed now but will also reward another 3-4 years cellaring. This is a perfect wine for game dishes such as duck breast with cherry sauce, or mushroom-based dishes.
Tasting Note
This Pinot Noir shows intense aromas of ripe red berries (cherry, strawberry and raspberry) & a hint of spice and vanilla. Well-structured and well-balanced with a finely woven texture, the tannins are well crafted & the finish is long with mild spice notes.
