Tasting Notes
The 2015 Gevrey Chambertin Vieilles Vignes includes 55% whole bunch fruit and it was matured in 30% new French oak. It offers bright redcurrant and cranberry scents on the nose that is well defined and offers plenty of freshness and vitality. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannin, structured in style with more crunchy black fruit here than the aromatics, sous-bois and white pepper towards the finish. This is premier cru in quality—excellent. Dec 2016, www.robertparker.com

(from a mix of vines that average 60+ years of age; the lieux-dits include Platières and Murots). This is aromatically quite similar to the Clos Village though the fruit is slightly denser and that sense of better density is confirmed by the bigger, richer and more concentrated flavors that possess both more power and persistence on the attractively complex finale. This, by contrast, is very Gevrey in style. Dec 2016, www.burghound.com
