My first time tasting a Clos du Cellier wine, and certainly not my last. The 2020 Givry Premier Cru is a classic in the making. I let my wine breathe in the glass for 30 minutes and I began sipping. This wine needs about a decade of aging, but is most definitely drinking nicely right now. 92 for now, but that could go as high as 95 in time. Is it worth $69 a bottle? I would consider it a bargain.

This was a recommendation from a wine shop in Flatiron, NYC. I poured and I let it sit my glass for thirty minutes before I tasted. This is typical Bourgogne Rouge. It is medium bodied, medium colored, and has a sour Cherry finish. It could benefit from a bit more bottle age, but drinks fairly well for now. Is it worth $52 a bottle? Not really.

The 2020 Poliziano Asinone is a very dull bottle of wine. I sipped it over three days. It started uninteresting, and it ended uninteresting. Is it worth $63 a bottle? Heck no!
