Vinous Antonio Galloni - 01 May 11
The 2008 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes shows gorgeous inner tension and energy. Expressive, floral aromatics wrap around a core of vibrant dark cherries. This remains a wiry, authoritative wine with fabulous balance and tons of 2008 character. The translucent, captivating finish leaves a lasting impression.
