🏰The 2017 Arlaud Gevrey-Chambertin Aux Combottes 1er Cru is a 【vibrant and richly colored Pinot Noir with a terrific, shimmering, almost perfumed aroma】, showcasing an extra touch of structure and excellent potential. Sourced from a Premier Cru vineyard in Burgundy, with some vines as old as 95 years, this wine offers a silky texture and beguiling weightlessness, finishing effortlessly. Tasting notes reveal red fruit, cherry, strawberry, plum, black cherry, blackberry, vanilla, nutmeg, brambles, leather, mocha, baking spice, licorice, cinnamon, violet, and hibiscus. It exudes a lovely perfumed fragrance amid a sheen of paraffin. 🍴 This elegant red Burgundy pairs exquisitely with duck, goose, game birds, veal, game (deer, venison), coq au vin, grilled or roast pork, braised beef in sauce, sirloin or rib of beef, and beef steak. 🥂 An excellent choice for a sophisticated dinner, a special occasion, or a gathering of Burgundy enthusiasts. This wine can be enjoyed now or aged further to reveal more complexity.
