Labet Pierre

2008 Labet Pierre Beaune Clos du Dessus du Marconnets

Red. There is a little more density to the aromas, but maybe less precision. Softer, the acidity is a little more edgy but this is much longer finishing, supported by plenty of dry extract.

2008 Labet Pierre Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes

The latest addition to the range; bought in April 2008 as a ‘bush’ – it hadn’t been tended in 18 months. Medium colour. The aromas are, initially, much less fruity than those of the Coucherias; slowly they expand from an inauspicious start, eventually offering flashes of very high quality fruit. Medium density with nice acidity. The flavours are quite lovely as you head into the finish. Understated, but a good a wine.
