Humbert Freres, Gevrey Chambertin Poissenot Size:12x750ml The 2016 Barbaresco Riserva Muncagota

The 2016 Barbaresco Riserva Muncagota stands out in this group of nine for the slightly more mineral-driven definition on the bouquet and the bigger textural impact and structure of the mouthfeel

it doesn t quite have the level of fleshiness and depth that is found in so many wines from Bolgheri in 2006

its made from a single vineyard planted in the Santa Cruz Mountains at 730m above sea level and just 15 miles from the Pacific ocean

Will last decades due to its perfect balance

Humbert Freres, Gevrey Chambertin Poissenot Size:12x750ml The 2016 Barbaresco Riserva Muncagota(from 20 to 25 year old vines). An extremely fresh and bright red fruit and mineral inflected nose complements to perfection the clean, detailed and superbly energetic medium full flavors that culminate in a sappy, serious, firm and equally explosive finish that is driving and linear in character. This is a sophisticated effort in both its understatement and purity. Highly recommended. 92 2014+
