171 Morey Saint-Denis AC 2008 Très Girard
Domaine Cécile TremblayGrape:100% Pinot Noir (13% alc.)
This comes from a half hectare of 40-45 year old vines situated just below the 1er Cru of Clos des Sorbets. The vines are sited on an easterly facing 25° slope to the west of the main road (where all the best village sites are found). Cécile doesn’t like rustic MSD, and this wine has superb balance, a well-defined blackberry and cherry fruit, well-integrated fine tannins and mineral note. Very limited quantity. For drinking 2012 to 2016.

172 Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Feusselottes AC 2008
Domaine Cécile TremblayGrape:100% Pinot Noir (13% alc.)
Cécile’s small holding of 50 year old vines lie on the upper slope of this 1er cru just to the east of the village. There is little soil here and the vines are very close to the limestone rock. She produces just three barrels, ageing the wine for a year before racking and transferring to stainless steel cuve for another four months prior to bottling. Quintessential Chambolle (60% destalked), it has a beautiful nose of crushed, fresh cherries and the sylish fruit has both delicacy and intensity on the palate with a mineral undertone. Will make a beautiful bottle in 4 years per Cécile. Very limited quantity. For drinking 2012 to 2018.
