Tasting notes
Imposing and structured today, the 2013 Gevrey-Chambertin Petite Chapelle 1er Cru is built on spine of serious tannin that gives the wine much of its personality. The 2013 finishes with substantial weight and a burst of dark fruit. This burly, powerful Burgundy is going to need time to come together.

Dark crimson. Not that much nose and pretty severe fruit on the palate. Dry finish with some cherry cough sweets in the middle. Wait! (JR)
The 2013 Gevrey Chambertin Petite Chapelle has a more expressive bouquet than the Clos du Fonteny with a mélange of red and black brambly fruit interlaced with woodland scents. The palate is extremely pure with filigree tannins, layers of red cherry and cassis fruit leading to a harmonious finish. Utterly charming, even if it does not possess the substance of Bruno's other Gevrey crus.
