Domaine Joblot, Givry Premier Cru, Les Bois Chevaux

100% Pinot Noir sourced from a plot in 1er Cru Les Bois Chevaux. All fruit destemmed. Fermented spontaneously. Aged for a year in oak barrels (50% new). 13% alcohol. Translucent raspberry-red color with a slightly rusty maroon hue and an almost colorless rim. The nose feels attractive with somewhat evolved aromas of sweet strawberries, some wilted flowers, a little bit of nutmeg, light juicy notes of dark fruits, a hint of earth, a floral touch of violets and a whiff …

Vin expressif avec un fruit rouge explosif, assez mur, bonne concentration sans excès. 89-90 Nice red fruit, very aromatic and expressive, nice concentration without anything excessive.

Pnp. Very dark hue for a pinot. Nose dense as a southern old mourvedre with pencil graphite and leather. Mouth super fresh, very juicy, with grippy texture. A young wine allready showing his energy and a trump card of noblesse, without make up. A lot of potential, and what in his style : density and energy. Single parcel east facing. 91-93

13.5% - Clear, med ruby with a blackish hue / clean, pronounced intensity - cherry pit, raspberry coulis, bramble, underbrush, spice box, floral lift / dry, med+ acidity, med fine grained tannin, med body, pronounced intensity, persistent length. Youthfull with the oak not fully integrated yet, broad shouldered with a nice sappy finish. Quite promising! 90(++).

Frais, des fruits gourmands (cerises, framboises), une texture souple mais avec une légère tension, très bon.

Concentré, belle buvabilité et fruit explosif.

Première impression en Bourgogne sur le millésime 2018 qui fut très chaud. Au nez et en bouche c'est sur des notes de Cerise Marasquin, réglisse, petits fruits rouge mûres accompagné d'une agréable acidité qui vient équilibrer le tout. Un vin qui possède une bonne concentration du au millésime mais la fraicheur est aussi au rendez-vous. C'est délicieux en ce moment ! a boire d'ici les 7-8 prochaines années.
