Description

From vines averaging between 60 and 70 years of age located in Les Champs Perriers, En Derée, Sylvie, Les Jeunes Rois, La Justice, La Burie and La Platière.

A perfumed and very pretty nose features notes of various dark berries, spice, earth and a hint of violet. The rich, naturally sweet, very round, medium-bodied flavours possess both excellent mid-palate volume and outstanding depth in the well-balanced finish. As it almost always does, this boxes well above its weight for a villages level Gevrey.

Drink from 2022 onward
