Tasting Note
The Givry 2008 has a light ruby colour. The aromas of violet, peppermint and currants create a tantalizing symphony. The tannins are rounded and the wine is elegant and refined.

Vinification
Stainless steel with 100% malolactic fermentation.

Description
The village of Givry gives its name to one of the 5 appellations of the Côte Chalonnaise. Already recognized in the middle-ages and also appreciated by Henry IV, it wasn’t until 1946 that Givry was elevated to “AOC” status in recognition of the consistent quality of its wines. The reds represent 80% of the appellation. They are fruit-forward, well-structured with finesse. Warm, lively and giving, they are often compared to wines from Volnay.

L'abus d'alcool est dangereux pour la santé. A consommer avec modération.
