Tasting notes
The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos du Château has a fragrant but light and airy bouquet with brambly red fruit and rose petals. The palate is quite tart on the entry. Red cherry mixes with crushed strawberry and highlights a slightly bitter edge on the finish. Drink this Gevrey over the next six to eight years.

The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos du Château offers up aromas of sweet red berries, loamy soil and spices, followed by a medium-bodied, supple and melting palate. Pretty and perfumed, it will offer a broad drinking window.
Cask sample. Clear, bright mid-pale cherry. Attractive nose of clean, fresh red cherries and strawberry. Moderate intensity and concentration. Sweet, classically simple burgundian Pinot. Warmth on the finish. (MH)
