Source-supplied bottle description
Retained as supporting identification copy; the structured facts and evidence links above are kept separate.
Two vineyards, Chemin de Plivot and Chemin de Flavigny, of 50-year-old vines planted on chalky sites with thin top soils in the heart of Avize; wild fermented in small Stockinger oak barrels and a 2000L foudre; 2g/L dosage <br><br> 2015 was a bit complicated! In Avize, we were able to avoid the green characters we saw in some other crus. We harvested them at what we thought was a ripe level but some were not ripe. <br><br> 'We will sell half a vintage each year for a few years to build the tirage time for Les Chemins d'Avize and release it at ten years of age, the same as Vieilles Vignes du Levant.' - Pierre Larmandier <br><br> The oak influence here is prominent, setting a stage of roast nuts and toast with a touch of smoky vanilla. In time the oak assimilates into the fruit with air and warmth in the glass. Larmandier reveals that he sometimes thinks it has too much wood, depending on the day and the temperature of service. A core of lemon and grapefruit purity signs Avize, ripe and supple, with gentle, fine, saline minerality drawing out a long finish. Impeccable ripeness completely dodges the underripeness that characterises this season. It holds good length and soft fine saline Avize minerality. Give it another few years in the cellar to fully come together. <br><br> Tasted 2023
Evidence boundary
This page combines the recorded bottle identity with linked source records. An exact region-name match supplies regional context but does not prove that this bottle carries the protected designation. A vineyard is only shown as bottle-level evidence when a wine-to-vineyard link exists. BottlePicker does not infer a vineyard, soil or site climate from a retailer title.
