Flavors of cherries, a bit of tannins, spices. A nice wine, not to go out of the way for.

Planted higher up the hill, roots are deeper, more concentration. Big nose. Structured and layered. Could use 3-5 more years. Big tannins right now.
Both Steve and Linda's favorite of the tasting.

This vineyard is on the steepest part of Gevrey-Chambertin, allowing excellent drainage and deep roots. Deep, concentrated flavors of cherries, red fruit. Mouth full of flavors. Well balanced tannins. Layered, complex. Cliff and Doris #1 of the tasting.
