2005 Domaine / Maison Vincent Girardin Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes - France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin (2/27/2016)
Catching up on some notes from last week, this was good though in the competition (Arnoux, Fourrier, Chevillon) the fact that it showed as good seemed like a victory. Still plenty of dark cherry fruit, as well as some burly tannin. What it lacked, especially by comparison was complexity. It did well with dinner though, so points for that. I would never kick it away if a bottle showed up on the table, just not something I would seek out. The true definition of a B wine.
