Community Tasting Note

Saturday, July 23, 2016 - This is so seductive on the nose and just screams Gevrey. I underestimated this wine the first time around and regrettably so. Lots of bright red and black cherry fruit with earth and subtle spice. Starts off a little tight, but this opened up and expanded throughout the evening. There’s a stony/mineral underbelly that surfaces after a few hours that gives the wine more focused and less 2009-ish. Great fruit purity that is silky and refined but not polished with very good balance that puts it at the top of its class. Despite the negative talk associated with the vintage, this is classic Burgundy. 94+.
