Dark ruby color with a pleasantly raunchy bouquet. Dark fruit, earthy, with some mushroom and chocolate notes, soft, but not dead. Past its prime, but a good showing for a 20 year old village Gevrey from a mid-tier producer.

Klar, dyp rød med lys menisk. Flott nese av mørke bringebær, jord og søte kirsebær med innslag av vanilje. Fast og tørr frukt med stram syre. Transparent uttrykk. Noe tørrende finish. Denne flaske var drikk opp, men muligens ikke perfekt lagret.

Encore quelque peu fermé mais la pureté du fruit y est. Un vin tout en finesse, dégusté dans un wine bar , j'aurais été curieux d'y gouté après avoir été carafé.

Fairly bright and punchy on the nose with ripe cherries and plenty of earthy notes. The oak is a little resinous and interrupts the fruit and earth with some pine needle action. In the mouth flavours up front are sweet but trimmed with meat and earth. It tightens considerably and the finish is a little pinched. Still quite a youthful wine that I hope will improve a bit with further cellaring
