Gevrey-Chambertin 2022

Gevrey is of course the village where the Grand Cru vineyard Chambertin is located. Vines have been cultivated here since 630AD, when a certain Bertin decided to emulate the monks, his neighbors.

The wine he made turned out to be spectacular - and the rest is history!

"Gevrey-Chambertin is a wine with a beautiful, bright ruby colour.

Intensely fruity on the nose, the aromas are reminiscent of black cherry, wild blackberry and liquorice. The woody character is subtle and marries delicately with the other aromas. As the wine evolves, there are more complex notes, such as mild spice, nutmeg and leather. Later still, mushroom and damp earth nuances make their appearance.

Although present on the palate, tannin is never astringent but blends itself harmoniously with the natural freshness and "gras" (velvety texture) of the wine.

The same aromas encountered earlier on the nose are found again in the aftertaste".
