Thenard Givry 1ER Premier Cru Clos Saint Pierre
$56.99
The Thenard family has owned land in Givry since 1760. For the past several decades their estate has sold most of its production to the Remoissenet. Wine had always been bottled under the Thenard label for private customers such as Charles de Gaulle and the Pope, but was not exported to North America under the Domaine label until 2005. They own 3 premier crus in Givry where they make both red and white.
The Givry 1er Cru are made in a traditional method. After stemming, the maceration takes place for about two weeks in wooden vats. Then the wine is aged partly in oak barrels (5% new oak) and partly in foudre for 24 months. Light filtration.
Red fruits aromas with a hint of spice nuances.
Concentrated and pure on the palate with a very pleasant minerality. Good tension and long finish.
100% Pinot Noir
