PRE-ARRIVAL 2024 Pierre Vincent Monthelie Rouge 1er Cru 'Les Duresses' 750ml

EXPECTED AUGUST 2026

"The lovely, sweet blackberry fruit of this wine from Pierre Vincent amply demonstrates his ability with red wine as well as white. There is a charming accent of rose petals and spice to the ripe fruit, and a supple structure with silky tannins and good length. He has fermented all of the fruit as whole bunches (perhaps to fill the tank?). But there is no edge of green tannins, suggesting that he sorted particularly well. This wine should be ready to drink with just a year or two in barrel and can easily last a decade in the cellar." 93 points, Charles Curtis MW, Decanter
