Nose of leather and library yet paradoxically ripe fresh berry fruit on the palate, plus earthly rustic notes. Low-med tannin and acid. Label says 12% Alc., but I doubt thats accurate. Likely 13-13.5%
The personality and idiosyncrasy of this village Gevrey suggest more of a “somewhere-ness” than the 05’ 1er Chambolle Borniques it went up against. Bravo.

Purple color, quite dark on the nose, elegant ripe blue fruit, violet, meat, truffle, forest, graphite, gracefully Gevery. Palate is juicy, precise, concentrated, and very energetic with a deep, long and complex spice, which gives a high alcohol impression. Impressive balance overall. Smooth tannin with some bumps that need much more time. This is a keeper. 91-92+

Lots of spice, blue fruit, meat and graphite. Good volume for a village wine. Drinking very well.

Massive potential - very approchable for 2015 - great aging potential. Lovely wine!
