Vincent Giradrin Gevrey-Chambertin Vielles Vignes 2002

A decent non-cru Gevrey-Chambertin. Light ruby color. Modest nose. A bit thin and short on the finish. Cherries and plums. About what you'd expect from a $35 (on release) Burgundy; i.e., drinkable but not profound. No aging potential. Drink up. Grade: B-

BTW, I served it with Grilled Pesto Chicken Breasts and Corn on the Cob from Cooking for Two 2013, which is published by the good folks that put out Cook's Illustrated, my most trusted cooking magazine. Yummy.
