This wonderful Gevrey-Chambertin has a fragrant assemblage of black cherry, wild blackberry, mushroom and damp earth. It's heady with truffle, nutmeg and a fresh touches of liquorice.
The grapes for this wine are sourced from a vineyard located in the north of the Côte de Nuits. Gevrey-Chambertin is world-famous, not only for its superlative Grand Crus, but also for all its other vineyards. Plantation density is 10,000 vinestocks/ha in order to extract as much as possible from the terroir and limit the production of each vine stock. Yields of just 44 hl/ha are purposely kept low, in order for the grapes to reveal every nuance of the terroir. Gevrey is the village where the Grand Cru vineyard Chambertin is located. Vines have been cultivated here since 630AD. The wine made here has been spectacular ever since!
