A new cuvée from Virgile for the 2021 vintage, this is a pure Pinot Noir, and he's made in in an intentionally 'glou-glou' style. Good colour, fresh fruity nose, sappy palate, a delight.

50% whole bunches. Bright pure nose, there's decent depth here, the palate crunchy and with lift - it's a terrific Bourgogne

80% whole bunch. Fresh; not amazingly aromatic yet but the lift and freshness is impressive, nice feel of sappy fully body and flavour density all there to open up.

80% whole bunch. Very rich fruit, super concentration of cassis and blackberry. Density and structure of old vines here, finishes with tannic grip, still with lots of fruit concentration.

Wonderfully rich colour, nose is complete, palate rich and voluminous. There is a thick tannic structure and a fine weight of juicy fruit - what's not to like?

70% whole bunch. From above Clos de Tart. The first thing Virgile picked in this vintage, which is understandable as it is well exposed and on thin soil over rock. Drought was a problem here in 2020. Quite firm, with a c...(read more)
