Tasting notes
(35 hectoliters per hectare produced in 2016; half of this wine was from the frosted Les Justices and the other half from Les Seuvrées): Healthy bright red. Aromas of red fruits and spices complicated by wild notes of iron, fresh blood and game. Fat, silky and smoky, showing insidious depth to its perfumed flavors of red fruits, smoke and spices. This superb village wine finishes with lovely length.

The 2016 Gevrey Chambertin has an uncomplicated but clean and pure bouquet with redcurrant and raspberry scents, the oak nicely integrated here. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, rather conservative in style but with a fine bead of acidity and just a pinch of spice toward the finish. Enjoy this over the next 4 to 6 years.
