A notch up in intensity from its Haut-Lieu sibling; pink grapefruit and bergamot vie for attention here.  This Clos du Bourg Moelleux is so complex and thrilling, it envelopes the senses in orange blossom, patisserie, melon and spice.  If it weren’t for the fantastic acidity, the concentration here would be almost liqueur-esque in depth, but that nervy energy comes through...

TASTING NOTES

The 2008 vintage has produced richly flavoured wines with great structure and Guidalberto showsreal concentration and depth. The colour is a deep, vibrant purple and the aromas are full and ripewith intense, dark cherry and plum fruits and notes of spice.

As JB said when we tasted together, “No comment, it is great”.  Many a true word said in jest.  The Le Mont Moelleux is exceptional and has a long life to come.  Rich texture leads in to a massive wave of green apple and spice.  It is supported by minerality, freshness and smokey, savoury inflections.  This is a wine with...

This is down 50% by volume from 2015.  It bright and fresh on the nose with lots of fruit.  Relatively soft in the mouth with apple and pear backed by a line of refreshing acidity, good length.  Drink from 2019.Armit Wines

TASTING NOTES

A wine with attractive wild cherry and blackberry fruit aromas, the 2015 has supple textures and juicy ripe fruit flavours balanced by lively redcurrant characters and a hint of savoury spice on the finish. This wine will be delicious to drink from release. Drink from 2017 to 2020.Armit Wines
