Production notes
Situated about 10 Km from Dijon, Gevrey-Chambertin is one of the finest viticultural villages of the Côte de Nuits. In 1847 Gevrey-Chambertin was the first village of the Côte d'Or to join the village name with that of one of its Grand Crus - hence 'Gevrey-en-Montagne' became 'Gevrey-Chambertin. Planted only with Pinot Noir, here one finds the complete hierarchy of the Burgundian appellations: to the north, the premiers crus and to the south the grand crus. The village appellations are gathered on the bottom of the slope. The sparse and pebbly limestonerich brown-red soils give Gevrey-Chambertin wines power and body. A great Côte de Nuits classic!
Tasting notes
Dark ruby-red in colour, our Gevrey-Chambertin 2022 reveals a nose of liquorice and cloves with hints of smoke. The palate is full and round, revealing aromas of grilled coffee and mocha. This wine, with its velvety tannins, is very elegant.
