MV Et Pourtant.. (Vire-Clessé)

Notes from the importer, Andrew Guard...
You will notice that this is a blend of two vintages - the reason for this is that in order to create the harmony, tension and balance they desire in this period of climate change, they have decided to take this approach, the results are quite incredible. From 60-year-old vines; aged for 30 months in older barrels... the soils here are more 'Calcaire' (they contain more limestone) The nose is incredibly attractive and bursts with apple, peach, pear and hazelnuts, the impression is rich and powerful. Lovely concentration in the mouth but with the telltale freshness and lively acidity that keeps you wanting more, this is delicious. A very powerful and intense wine - it oscillates intensity - it is one to keep!
