There is a wonderfully refined mouth feel to the seductively textured medium-bodied flavors that are finer but less obviously mineral-inflected than the Sentiers on the impressively persistent finish

full-bodied and caressing broad-shouldered flavors are blessed with an abundance of dry extract that confers a sappy texture to the powerful and balanced finale

This too will need a few years of cellar time first

As you can see by my note and score

the purity and flavor make this rise above the crowd

Perrot Minot, Gevrey Chambertin other_regions_italy There is a wonderfully refined(from La Justice and Les Seuvres). There is enough reduction to mask the underlying fruit at present. The palate impression of the tautly muscular middle weight flavors is completely different as this is quite firm and robust with good power that carries over to the balanced and impressively persistent finish. This is certainly Gevrey in character but thanks to the relatively fine grained tannins it avoids any sense of rusticity. Recommended. (89 92)
