Heresztyn Mazzini, Gevrey Chambertin Songes Vv Vintage:2015 contemporary expression of Chianti Classico

contemporary expression of Chianti Classico at its very finest

whole berries pumped into stainless-steel fermentation tanks and pumped over twice a day until dry

The 2015 Tour-Martillac was impressive from barrel and that is translated into bottle

An unusually spicy and appealingly fresh array is comprised by liqueur-like red berry fruit aromas

There is enough reduction to suppress the underlying fruit though there is very good density to the subtle mineral-inflected flavors that deliver excellent length for a villages level wine on the balanced if mildly rustic finish

Heresztyn Mazzini, Gevrey Chambertin Songes Vv Vintage:2015 contemporary expression of Chianti Classico(this is actually a blend of En Songes and Les Geuelepines). Once again the nose of pretty purple fruit and abundant floral elements is trimmed in soft wood. Here too the mouthfeel of the medium weight flavors is really quite attractive while offering slightly better detail and minerality on the sneaky long, balanced and lightly rustic finale.
