Has good potential keeping in a cellar for a few years

but it currently has less of the prelate character that shines so terrifically in the 2015 Prelate GG (bottled after just one year on the full lees)

this wine gives way to more tropical fruit and melon characteristics

Morey also started a small negociant called Morey-Blanc

Varietal Blend: 100% Sauvignon Blanc

Georges Descombes Chiroubles Vieilles Vignes (wax cap) 2021 Size:750 ml Has good potential keeping in100% Gamay. About mere 0. 5 of Georges Descombes' 15 hectares of vines are in the Chiroubles cru. There is only one Chiroubles bottling. The vines are 50 years and older, planted on hilly sites of decomposed granite soils. The farming is organic, though not certified, and the harvest is manual. The vinification is traditional: whole bunch, semi carbonic maceration in large vats (cement, fiberglass, stainless steel) with native yeasts and no sulfur.
