Description / Reviews
"The fruit for this wine is sourced from 2 vineyards in Gevrey Chambertin, aged between 35-55 years old. Combe du Dessus which is just opposite the Chateau of Chambertin and En Champs, a little further along the slope opposite the 1er cru vineyard Champeaux. The fruit was so consistent we hardly needed to do any sorting. Always very seductive! Packed with sweet, generous notes of blackberries and cherries alongside a spicy edge. The palate has typically Gevrey cherry flavours finishing with fine, silky tannins. This year, this wine will benefit from a few years in the cellar before drinking." - Jane Eyre, Winemaker
"Red cherry, strawberry, spice, sage, with that typical Gevrey earthiness in tow. It’s medium-bodied, quite juicy in red fruit, plenty of spice and a light smokey bitterness. There’s some sappiness and a cranberry crunch to acidity, a fine dusty and grainy feel to tannin, with a bright red fruit and orange zest finish of good length. It’s a little reticent as at now, though I’m pretty sure it will show better given a few years in the cellar." - 92 Points, Gary Walsh, The Wine Front
"Lightish cherry red. So pretty and lightly floral. Lovely tightrope between lightness and intensity. Fragrant, extremely fine texture. Chewy, with firm fruit core. Long and subtle." - 17/20, Julia Harding, Jancis Robinson
