2023 Givry 'Le Crezot', Monopole, Domaine Masse Père et Fils, Côte Chalonnaise, France

These Pinot Noir grapes come from a 45-year-old vineyard. The wine has aged in small barrels, of which 20% were new. En Choué is one of the last vineyards to be picked each year, as it lies on high terrain in Russilly. Colour is vibrant, ruby-purple, with Pinot Noir aromas being open and fresh. The palate shows well-structured fruitiness, with gentle tannins and charming aftertaste (for drinking 2025-2029+).
