Henri de Villamont, Petite Chapelle 1er Cru
Red wine | Gevrey-Chambertin AC
One body and one mind!
This 1er Cru “Petite Chapelle” presents bright fruit, cherry and blackberry supported by woody aromas. Whole, it is also fine and elegant in the mouth. If we dared, we'd say it's little Jesus in velvet pants! A very great red wine from Burgundy, pleasant to drink young, but exciting to watch age.
