Burghound, January 2011, Score: 90-92
This is also sufficiently reduced such that it is impossible to say very much other than the fruit appears quite ripe. The beautifully well-detailed flavors are also cool, restrained and minerally but as is usually the case, the tannins are finer and the overall impression is a wine of finesse and purity. Qualitatively, there isn't much to choose between this and the Cherbaudes as it's a choice between refinement versus greater complexity. Drink: 2016+.Notes: from .34 ha parcel planted in 1966.Comments: outstanding!
Region
Gevrey Chambertin
The greatest village in terms of notable grand cru vineyards, Gevrey Chambertin has no less than 9 of them including its most famous Chambertin and Chambertin Clos de Bèze, and includes a premier cru vineyard that many people deem grand cru in quality - Clos St. Jacques. It encompasses approximately 400 hectares under vine also making it the largest top quality vineyard area in the Côte de Nuits. Gevrey-Chambertin has many followers who seek out its deeply coloured, robust and textured wines. They are often firmer than the neighbouring appellations of Chambolle Musigny and Vosne Romanée and can take several years to soften once released. Due to its size and reputation, the list of excellent producers is noteworthy and many are worth seeking out.
