Domaine du Cellier aux Moines, Givry, 1er Cru Clos du Celliers aux Moines, 2010

Drinking Window: 2023 – 2027
The 2010 is positively gorgeous. Less dense than the 2009, it nevertheless displays excellent concentration and an invigorating tension, delivering a balanced mixture of cherry-like fruitiness and minerals. A streak of crystalline purity holds it all together. Though it has a lovely austerity compared to the 2009, it is, by no means, an austere wine. Fresh and energetic, it dances on the palate. For me, it’s classic Burgundy, delivering what I call, flavour without weight.
