  Classic, very appealing nose with medium + intensity notes of fresh strawberryjam, rhubarb, some baking spice, mushrooms and autumn leaves. Silky mouthfeel, med body and med+ acid, more savoury than on the nose, carrying the fruit well into a long balanced finish.

  10/4/2023 - Cote d'Or Likes this wine:

  Tasted over 2 hrs
  -nearly semi-translucent med dark red purple
  -some reduction funk partly blows off leaving a relatively fresh tilled soil floral cassis
  -med acidity, med weight nicely concentrated vibrant lively earthy dark fruit saline, med/med- tannins
  -very lovely ready to drink if early on its maturity curve, not super complex but a perfectly wonderful village Gevrey, first time tasting this producer is a win

  Opened and decanted an hour ahead of roasted salmon, beans, and mixed veggies. Ruby-crimson color. The nose brings fresh potpourri, forest floor funk, cloves, and baked rhubarb pie. The palate is medium, round, and textured, bringing more rhubarb with candied blueberries, sour cherries, orange peel, and Manhattan bitters mixed with baking spices. The extended finish brings wood smoke and is still evening out, so this will be best 2024-2032. Technical score: 92. Enjoyment score: 92.

  Popped and poured. Very elegant and airy. Red cherry, herbs and minerals. Simple, medium bodied, restrained. Won’t be a long ager but for everyday drinking this is a good choice

  Am no Gevrey expert, but both bottles of this I’ve tried have run contrary to my expectations: behind the floral notes there is an undercurrent of something bitter…more than just oak. With first bottle I thought maybe so2, but now thinking perhaps it’s a feature not a bug. Stems? Rocks? Not bad, but not an easygoing wine.
