  From Champs Perrières in Brochon. Classic Gevrey nose!! Wine is ready as the fruit is minimal. A great example of a terroir giving all that she can give, yet this is a village wine. That being said what I admire most about this wine is the fact that although this is a 2009 (hot vintage), there is a distinct coolness to this wine that is only found in Burgundy. Special village wine. This wine has another decade of life.

  From half bottle.
  A touch lower than the last time ( Papies 91) and on the day had a bitter edge that sort of spoilt the otherwise beautiful and well expressive wines. We have a few more and we remain hopeful. 90?

  Half 10/12. Duller in the glass than previously, still mid to full ruby but a dullness and lacklustre appearance. A melange of deep cherry fruit with damp earth and meatier notes starting to develop. Densely silky, good fruit, and more of a discernible Gevrey than producer character, though a sense of vigneron lingers. This is really very good village wine. ****

  Pnp, earth, red fruits, cool blue fruits, forest floor, some blue fruits after a few hours, juicy, tannins still obvious. Good village and still primary and youthful

  From half bottle. Young and juicy 2009 and albeit a touch one dimensional at this stage it was also exceptionally delicious .Polished , well round and silky. A bit too fruity ( in a non confectionery way of course) at this stage and this would be so good once a secondary side develops! 91 ish for now
