Tasting notes
On the nose, this Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru offers a complex bouquet of ripe red fruits, including cherry, raspberry, and pomegranate, intertwined with floral notes of rose and violet. There are also subtle earthy undertones, hints of forest floor, and nuances of spice and leather from the oak aging.
On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied with silky tannins and a refined acidity. Flavors of red and dark berries are complemented by earthy notes, a touch of truffle, and a hint of minerality.
The finish is long and elegant, with lingering notes of fruit, spice, and a delicate oak influence.
