Burghound, April 2010

A very ripe, exuberantly spicy and plumy nose features some earth influence that is also reflected by the rich, full and very generous medium weight plus flavors that retain a reasonable sense of detail and while this leans in the direction of being stylistically modern, there is a bit more restraint here compared to several of the prior wines. I would suggest cellaring this for 8 to 10 years.

Stephen Tanzer's IWC, April 2010

Medium red-ruby. Expressive aromas and flavors of redcurrant, licorice and tobacco. Sweet, suave and broad, with a plumper texture than most of the foregoing samples. Finishes with suave tannins and good subtle persistence.

About Winery

Vincent Girardin was born in Santenay, in the Côte de Beaune and is part of a winemaking family whose origins date to the 17th century (11th generation). Now in his forties, Vincent began in 1982 with only 2 hectares (5 acres) of vines. When his father retired, Vincent took over several additional hectares to which he could devote himself.

Vincent Girardin is a man of conviction. He knows what he wants. He has grasped his profession firmly with both hands. Vincent's roots are deep in the most prestigious terroirs of Burgundy. He knows every vine, every parcel of land. He also ensures that the very highest quality is maintained by following each wine's development every step of the way, at all times respecting the most important element of Burgundy - the individuality of its terroirs.
