Country: France / Burgundy
Variety: Pinot Noir
Winery: Manuel Olivier / Vieilles Vignes
In this case, Vieilles Vignes (old vines) only means vines over 20 years. The wine is soft, rounded and full of red cherry fruitiness. Judicious wood aging has rounded the wine out while leaving all its fruit intact. It can be drunk now, but will be better from 2016.
