violet oil

Winemaker Gavin Chanin is re-releasing some back vintages he has been holding in the cellar

but it's finer and more elegant

(from a huge 3 ha parcel superbly placed high on the slope

all wrapped in a bitter lemon-inflected finish

Thierry Violot-Guillemard, Pommard Epenots other_regions_australia violet oil(from Petits Epenots). Ripe but attractively fresh aromas include those of poached plum, black cherry, restrained violet and just turned earth. The rich, full bodied and caressing flavors also possess excellent volume and solid mid palate density, all wrapped in a sneaky long finish where the only nit is a hint of warmth. Lovely.
