Burghound, January 2021, Score: 87-90
A more deeply pitched nose consists mostly of red and dark currant, soft earth, sauvage and spice wisps. There is fine volume to the equally sleek and delicious medium weight flavors that conclude in a chiseled, rustic and ever-so-mildly drying finish. This youthfully austere effort will likely harmonize in time and my projected range offers the benefit of the doubt. Drink 2027+

Pretty pink purple, lightly floral on the nose with some discreet red fruit, really pretty on the palate then the characteristic firmer finish which I applaud, and very good length. Harmonious too.
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.
