Tasting notes
Profound plummy blueberry aromas are found in the nose of the candied 2002 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru. This mouth-coating wine bastes the palate with velvety layers of sweet red fruits immersed in spices. Hugely concentrated and powerful, its copious tannin is exceptionally well-ripened, appearing supple and almost viscous in the wine’s elongated finish. Projected maturity: 2007-2017. Importer: Weygandt-Metzler, Peter Weygandt, Unionville, PA; tel. (610) 486-0800

(a blend of fruit from Fontenys, Corbeaux and Perrieres) Bright medium ruby. Perfumed aromas of cassis and coffee. Bright dark berry flavors are complicated by discreet minerality and floral and gamey nuances. Highly aromatic in the mouth, with superb cut. Finishes with firm tannins and terrific focus. This and the following 2002s are aging in 100% new barrels.
