WTN Domaine du Clos Salomon Givry 1er cru

[tcizma]

Earthy, somewhat rustic, but pure nose of red pinot fruit. Full bodied, nicely intense, precise and sappy flavors with no hint of wood. '98 vintage was no picnic in the Cote Challonaise, but there is plenty of density and round, clean flavors with exceptional balance and a teriffic, lengthy finish ( just a hint of astringency )

Very good overall harmony of expression.

Thanks for the note. I am a big fan of the Givry's from Joblot, so it's always nice to have tasting notes from other Givry producers.
