TN: 2003 Camille Giroud Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru Les Guérets

  • 2003 Camille Giroud Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru Les Guérets - France, Burgundy, Côte de Beaune, Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru (11/10/2009)
    As with the other vintage of this wine I’ve previously enjoyed, (2005) this vintage is also very “New World” in style. Lots of dark cherry and spice on the nose with a very fruit forward flavor that manages to somehow retain an extra level of complexity by adding a nice tobacco element towards the finish. This is very tasty and would be a great wine to bring CA Pinot lovers over to the dark side. However, true Burgundy “purists” might not like it so much. (92 pts.)
