Notes
“Francois and Isabelle Lumpp own this frankly amazing 9 hectare domaine in Givry and for the those in the know it’s so much more than its AOC title. So often the collector and sommelier dismiss the wines of Givry vs their royal counterparts in Cote d’Or. These are superstar wines that are simply ridiculous value for high quality Burgundy.” – Importer’s note
Le Crausot is a fairly new 1er Cru, established in the 1990’s. It’s at the southern tip of the appellation and very calcareous soils, extremely mineral styled wines.
South East exposure. Pronounced ‘Crow-Sooh’. 0.93 Hectares of 25 Year old Pinot Noir vines planted.
Critics Comment
Wine Advocate
“The 2019 Givry 1er Cru Crausot is showing very well, mingling notions of berries and plums with sweet spices in an inviting bouquet. Medium to full-bodied, layered and succulent, with fine tannins and bright acids, it concludes with a long, flavorful finish” – 92 points Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
