Lot #36. Denis Mortet Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes 2009

Description: Consists of 12 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 91 ST.
"Good deep, fresh red. Lively aromas of black cherry, licorice and menthol. Silky-sweet on the palate, with solid minerality enlivening the black raspberry and licorice flavors. Densely packed wine with lovely emerging perfume of lavender, spices and white pepper. Finishes with ripe tannins. The crop level was a very-low-for-the-vintage 35 hectoliters per hectare due to the high percentage of tiny berries, noted Mortet. A superb showing today for this village offering." Vinous, Mar 2012
Provenance: The Sea Cliff Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $850
