95-Pt DRC Winemaker Premier Cru Burgundy—Lowest Price Delivered!

95 Points from James Suckling saying:
"Rippling with cassis, sour-cherry and forest-berry aromas, this is a stunning Givry 1er Cru that marries excellent concentration with very fine, precisely crafted tannins, the lively acidity adding a light touch at the very graceful finish, where the wonderful freshness suggests this has excellent aging potential. From biodynamically grown grapes. Bottled unfiltered. Drink or hold."

94 Points from Wine Advocate saying:
The 2020 Givry 1er Cru Clos Du Cellier Aux Moines opens in the glass with notes of cherries, raspberries, sweet spices and orange rind. Medium to full-bodied, lively and enveloping, with real plentitude and an abundance of powdery tannin, it's a superb wine in the making."

background:
The Cellier aux Moines of Givry is a unique group of historical buildings, including a house with a large cellar and a farm, that has survived the vicissitudes of time. Having been the Abbey of La Ferté’s wine-producing property for nearly seven centuries, and then owned by the same family for two centuries following the French Revolution, it was purchased in 2004 by Philippe and Catherine Pascal and their three children, Camille, Marguerite, and Alexis.

The Cellier aux Moines represents the renaissance of one of the oldest domaines in Burgundy, in Givry, known as a Cistercian Cellier surrounded by its Clos since 1130. The Clos du Cellier aux Moines is a Premier Cru Classé in Givry, covering 32 acres. The Domaine du Cellier aux Moines owns 12 acres of perfectly oriented Premier Cru vineyards planted around the original Cellier.

Enticing aromas of cassis, tart-cherry, and sous-bois lead to a vibrant, medium-bodied palate with velvety tannins and crisp acidity, showcasing notes of juicy cherries and currant, leather and cinnamon.
