"The 2009 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes explodes from the glass with deep layers of intense fruit. This is a decidedly exotic, full-bodied Burgundy loaded with vintage 2009 personality. Waves of fruit built to a deep, palate-staining finish. Hints of smoke, licorice and tar are some of the many notes that linger on the palate. The Vieilles Vignes is an example of a wine that is heavily defined by the year in both 2009 and 2010. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2029."
