2014. Didn't even know they made a Chiroubles. Old school deliciousness. Firm, lean, dry, and angular.

Beautifully understated aromas of it's sand & granite terroir, red currants, and light sandalwood. Flavors of baking spice, toasted moss, and black currants. The tannins are bigger than a usual Gamay. Good long finish. I'm impressed!
