Pierre Girardin Size:6x750ml Medium-sweet and moderately dense

Medium-sweet and moderately dense

intense and mineral-driven medium weight flavors possess excellent verve and cut

This robust and powerful effort is decidedly old school in style

Discreet wood frames very fresh and distinctly earthy cool wild red berry fruit that marries into rich and beautifully textured middle weight flavors that possess both good energy and an attractive sense of minerality on the balanced finish

Pierre Girardin Size:6x750ml Medium-sweet and moderately dense(50% whole clusters; one barrel produced). Like the Beaux Monts, this is sufficiently reduced to largely mask what appears to be ripe fruit that derives more from the dark side of the spectrum. More interesting are the super sleek, even silky, middle weight flavors that possess a lovely sense of underlying tension on the dusty, highly complex and even firmer finish where the only nit is a touch of warmth. Very promising.
