  This is a very nice wine that's drinking well now, though it reminded me more of a Chambolle or Volnay than a Gevrey at first. Floral on the nose, slightly tart but full red fruits on the palate, just a wisp of tannins, good acids. Cherries with a hint of blood orange. More delicate than meaty or earthy. About 3 hours after opening it was showing more of that meaty/soil edge I associate with Gevrey. Not the most complex Burg, but an excellent showing for a village wine. B+/A-

  Wine Trek: Elegant, cola, smoke, dark cherry; silky mth, med. - bod, bright cherry flavors near end, lots of dry t’s & hi acidic content.***Not much backbone there. Liked Dom. Drouhin better.
