2016 Domaine Pierre Amiot Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru 'Les Combottes'

Premier Cru Red Burgundy - Pinot Noir. An incredibly well positioned premier cru vineyard located in a subtle dip, tightly between Grand Crus Clos de la Roche, Latricieres-Chambertin and Charmes/Mazoyeres-Chambertin. In the right hands the vineyard often produces wines of more interest than its Grand Cru neighbours. Darker fruits, more brooding, more dense, cassis, dark fruit liqueurs. Dense and tense. The palate is full of brooding and powerful black fruits. The fruit remains wrapped around the powerful tannins. Very very long.
