Catherine et Claude Marechal - Bourgogne 'Cuvee Gravel' Rouge - 2020

Crafted from the Pommard and Chassagne area, in 2020 the wine is larger scaled than usual as you would expect from 2020 but the bouquet is again lovely, wafting from the glass in a fine blend of raspberries, black cherries, sweet soil tone and violets. On the palate the wine is medium to full bodied,  focused and long, with a sappy core, good transparency and fine tension and grip on the long and vibrant finish. . Another rich and characterful Bourgogne from Claude and in these times when Bourgogne Rouge can wholesale in three figures, this is a serious bargain.” Importer Notes, Andrew Guard
