Guilbert-Gillet - Pommard 1er cru "Saussilles" 2022

Guilbert-Gillet - Pommard 1er cru "Saussilles" 2022Founded in 2020 by Benjamin Guilbert and Rne Gillet, Domaine Guilbert Gillet was born from the passion of a young winemaker keen to make his stamp on the Burgundy region. Sitting in the region of Savigny les Beaune, the estate covers 3. 6 hectares of vineyards in Savigny and Chorey. Benjamin is committed to organic and sustainable viticulture, keeping the vines pruned and trained on trellising systems. 100% Pinot Noir

The 2008 Clos du Marquis may be one of the two or three finest second wines I have tasted from proprietor Jean-Hubert Delon
