winedirect.co.uk Red, Maison Alex Gambal, Clos Vougeot Grand Cru, Pinot Noir, France, Fabrice Laronze, Burgundy, Red |
 | | With a sophisticated, huge, gravity-fed, and historically-housed facility, increasingly high-quality and long-term grape contracts, gradual accumulation of his own vine acreage, and clearly adept assistance from wine maker Fabrice Laronze, Gambal is demonstrating impressive results with his 4-5,000 cases annually of both red and (60%) white. |
 | | As usual 3 barrels from the top of the hill next to the wall and 2 barrels from the middle center, 4/5 very old vines and 66% new oak. |
 | | Three of five barrels of Gambal’s 2005 Clos Vougeot are from a parcel high up and against the wall of the Clos and Grands Echezeaux (and three of five are new, too). |
