"Geantet crafts this dark-colored wine from 45 to 93-year old vines spread out over 17 parcels throughout the Gevrey commune. Harvested at a meager 16 hectoliters/hectare, this outstanding offering had a reticent nose. After some cajoling it reluctantly revealed scents of super-ripe blackberries and touches of leather. Loads of concentrated and dense (almost viscous) cassis, boysenberries, and blackberries can be found in this full-bodied, fat, and lively wine."
