2013 Georges Laval Brut Nature Les Hautes Chevres

Laval's 2013 Brut Nature Les Hautes-Chèvres, 100% Pinot Meunier, is a dense, powerful wine. The old-vine gravitas of this site, planted between 1930 and 1971, comes through loud and clear in the wine's ample frame. Dense, powerful and broad on the palate, the 2013 is all class. Dried pear, hazelnut, smoke and dried herbs add tons of complexity. The finish is substantial and intense in all of its dimensions.
