Tasting Notes:
On the nose, the wine bursts with vibrant aromas of fresh red berries, particularly raspberries and cherries, intertwined with subtle earthy and floral notes. The palate is generous yet refined, with a silky texture and lively acidity. Ripe fruit flavours dominate, with layers of blackcurrant, raspberry, and a delicate hint of spice. The tannins are smooth, providing structure without overwhelming the fruit. As the wine evolves, it reveals more depth, showcasing earthy nuances and a mineral finish. This Gevrey-Chambertin is incredibly well-balanced and approachable in its youth, yet has the potential to mature beautifully, developing greater complexity and richness over time. Ideal with poultry, lamb, or soft cheeses, it embodies the elegance and purity that defines the finest Burgundy wines.
