Description
Captures the essence of this high-altitude site with a luminous, perfumed style that’s become his hallmark. Perched above Clos de la Roche, Monts Luisants yields Pinot Noir of finesse over power—here expressed in silken red cherry, wild strawberry, crushed rose petal, and forest spice. The 2019 vintage offers ripeness without excess, and Girardin’s restrained use of whole bunch and new oak ensures vibrancy remains front and center. Jasper Morris hails Girardin’s 2019s as “refined and transparent,” and this bottling is a standout—youthful but already layered, with lift and mineral grip. Best from 2025 to 2036, it’s a brilliant example of terroir-transparency from Burgundy’s new guard.
