Still a nice wine, but not quite as good as previous bottles. Strawberry and red currant fruit in a medium-light body with smooth texture. Lacks the depth and freshness of earlier bottles. Cellared since original release.

This bottle is even better than one drunk at the beginning of the year, and indeed is about as good as one could expect a village Gevrey to be. It is ripe but balanced, medium-plus weight, dark fruit with some spice in it, good liveliness from the acidity, and plenty of depth. It is in a lovely place right now, but I wouldn't be surprised to see that it improves still further.

This wine remains very open. It is pure delight to drink for its pinpoint precision of red currant and raspberry fruit and overall balance.

Cellared since release. Spicy red fruit, silky texture, medium weight. Classic village Gevrey.
