Tasting Notes
-
Burghound, January 2012,
Score: 91-94Here the fruit is ever-so-slightly riper running more toward black cherry which Humbert attributed to the much older vines. There is excellent richness to the supple and quite round flavors that retain a fine sense of precision on the intensely mineral-driven, explosive and impressively persistent finish. There is an abundance of dry extract present and this should make for a really lovely wine in 8 to 10 years. 2018+.

Region
Gevrey-Chambertin
The greatest village in terms of notable grand cru vineyards, Gevrey Chambertin has no less than 9 of them including its most famous Chambertin and Chambertin Clos de Bèze, and includes a premier cru vineyard that many people deem grand cru in quality - Clos St. Jacques. It encompasses approximately 400 hectares under vine also making it the largest top quality vineyard area in the Côte de Nuits. Gevrey-Chambertin has many followers who seek out its deeply coloured, robust and textured wines. They are often firmer than the neighbouring appellations of Chambolle Musigny and Vosne Romanée and can take several years to soften once released. Due to its size and reputation, the list of excellent producers is noteworthy and many are worth seeking out.
