Very pretty nose of cherry, raspberry and sweet earth. It is fine and lacy in the mouth. Fruits aren't deep but highly perfumed and balance is exquisite. There's just a hint of meaty development sneaking in. A joy to drink.

Kel's Birthday - Wine and Poker Night (Kat and Yuwen's): Simply lovely – this was a wonderful Gevrey-Chambertin village, and drinking quite at peak. It had a lovely nose, with sweet shades of red cherries, creamy raspberry ripple and fragrant floral notes underpinned by more masculine Gevrey scents of earth and meat and mineral and a little dash of spice. The palate had a juicy red fruitedness to it, with lovely gobs of cherries and berries seasoned with little hints of spice and mineral. This was very full and generous for a straight Gevrey, with a depth and scale that seemed to perch somewhere between village and 1er Cru level. While the tannins had softened to a nice velvety robe, there was still enough structure to give the wine some texture as it moved into a nicely long finish seasoned with another dash of spice. Delicious stuff – this was pure juicy satisfaction.

Light garnet color. Nose of red fruit, meat, and a touch of darker fruit. Nicely evolved, but should hold for at least a few more years. Great lift and vibrancy. Beautiful wine.

Very fine Gevrey, more elegant and silky than it would have to be for a village. Nice fruit, silky tannins, prime drinking right now.
