    January 2, 2024 - Delicious sweet and simultaneously “damp” nose of Gevrey complexity with tree moss, sous bois, leather, a fleck of bacon fat, truffle/mushroom with a deep sweetness in the form of caramel and red fruit remnants. This has a sultry/ripe character to it that really charms the nose and palate. Boxes above the Gevrey Villages quality with good pampering richness on the initial attack. From G. Vachet.

    April 12, 2023 - I’ve enjoyed many half bottles of this and it’s remarkably consistent. Solid bricky color; beautiful aged fruit. Excellent and held up for several hours. Produced by G Vachet.

    December 31, 2021 - Better than expected for half bottle format of a village wine from an unheralded vintage. We opened two bottles which showed similarly. Color is amber-tinged ruby and the nose shows mostly cherry and sous-bois notes. Light to medium-bodied, with some baking spice to go with the core of red fruits. A nice surprise. The label indicates that Louis Trapet is the proprietère.
