We have another great buy with age from Domaine Joblot today, this time it's the 2015 Clos du Cellier Aux Moines, which is drinking incredibly right now! Joblot is the reference point in Givry, a fourth-generation estate that farms prime parcels of Givry planted on thin limestone and clay. Clos du Cellier Aux Moines is a flagship premier cru for the domaine, with older Pinot vines and an east to southeast exposure that naturally yields depth with mineral cut. 2015 was a great red Burgundy vintage, characterized by warm, sunny conditions, and the grapes were picked at perfect ripeness. The wine was fully destemmed and fermented with native yeasts, and the élevage lasted about 12 to 14 months in French barriques, with a touch of new oak. Vivid and structured with black and red fruits dominating, with violet, baking spice, and a hint of graphite and crushed stone. The palate with ample mid-palate flesh is framed by fine, chalk-tinged tannins and lively acidity, finishing long and with a touch of savoriness. Delicious now, this is a top-tier Givry that delivers profound Côte de Beaune sensibility at a very affordable price.
