Description
Justin Girardin is the 13th generation of a family winery that has existed since 1570. The winery owns 17 hectares, most of which are located in Santenay (Côte de Beaune). In this appellation, he pushes the boundaries of quality. For years, Justin has employed methods consistent with biodynamics. The goal: a healthy environment with healthy grapes that reflect the terroir of the individual vineyards.
The Pinot Noir grapes come from three Santenay vineyards with old vines (average age 50 years): Clos Genets, St. Jean, and Les Saunières. The grapes are hand-harvested and completely destemmed. They are first cold-soaked for five days in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 12 degrees Celsius to develop fruit flavors. Fermentation then begins, lasting approximately 20 days. Only natural yeasts from the surrounding area are used for fermentation. The wine is then aged for 12 months in French oak barrels (from Allier and Vosges), 15% of which are new. In the glass, the Justin Girardin Santenay Rouge Vieilles Vignes has a typical Burgundy-like light ruby red color. On the nose, it reveals notes of cherries, blackcurrants, and rhubarb, and with some aging and swirling, it also reveals hints of cloves and orange. On the palate, the wine is fruity with spicy notes of cloves and pepper. Subtle tannin structure and plenty of length. Delicious with a duck breast fillet and a fresh cherry.

Professional Reviews
16/20
"Donkere kersen, peper, fijn hout. Goede zuren, fijne tannine, lekker." - 16/20, Perswijn over de 2019-vintage
"Distant, toasty oak and ripe, fresh red cherry combine on the nose of this wine. The palate spreads out into rounded, juicy flavors, edged by freshness and fine tannins. The wine strikes a harmonious and fresh balance." - 90 punten, Wine Enthusiast over de 2018-vintage
16/20, Jancis Robinson over de 2016-vintage

Justin Girardin is the 13th generation of a family business that has been in existence since 1570. The winery owns 17 hectares, the largest part of which is in Santenay (Côte de Beaune). In this appellation he pushes the boundaries of quality. Justin has been using methods that correspond to bio(-dynamic) for years. The goal: a healthy nature with healthy grapes that reflect the terroir of the individual vineyards. For that reason, he is also frugal with new oak barrels. Best of all are the extremely favorable prices for Burgundy, a rarity these days.
Justin Girardin is out in the vineyards as often as he can. He uses a minimal intervision: nature is leading and he only adjusts if necessary. He does this very carefully, by the way: remove buds to limit the yield, remove excess leaves where necessary.
Justin has been working for years according to methods that correspond to biological (-dynamic) working. For example, he plants new vines according to the lunar calendar, as is common in biodynamic viticulture. He covers prunings with soil, after which he reuses them as compost. He regularly plows the vineyards to promote micro-organism activity in the soil. Roots on the surface are gently removed so that the roots penetrate deeper into the soil, resulting in more intense wines.
Special is the wide variety of old Chardonnay and Pinot Noir clones in the vineyards. This promotes biodiversity. The clones originated in these vineyards and were preserved through clone selection. It makes the wines unique and really tied to their location.
