2019 Bourgogne Pinot Noir, Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini
A simple, joyful core of fruit in this velvety-textured, rich and ripe yet aromatically lifted Bourgogne Rouge. Careful extraction methods ensure an easy-going, opened style, where ambitious layers of flavour make this ‘mini Gevrey’ so beautifully structured, so eminently approachable.
About the producer, Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini:
One of the most progressive, terroir-true of all Gevrey-Chambertin growers, and applying biodynamic principles, with partial whole-bunch fermentation. Here are wines of notable perfume, richness, texture and depth of fruit. Here, a generosity in style that is beguilingly countered by a tight-lipped restraint and crunchiness of Gevrey fruit.
