Score 88-91/100 · Drink 2023-2035, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jun 2017
The 2015 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Fontenys is powerful and also surprisingly tightly wound for the vintage. There is no shortage of power or mineral drive, that much is certain. If anything, the 2015 comes across as a bit compact. A spine of tannins give the wine its energy, expressive red stone fruit, pomegranate, red cherry and floral notes that start to emerge with time. Far from an easygoing 2015, the Fontenys is likely to require a bit of time to be at its very best.
