A deft application of wood does not reduce the considerable appeal of the ripe, pure and airy nose that is classic Gevrey from a cool vintage with its broad array of wild red berry fruit, earth, humus and a hint of animale. The broad-shouldered flavors possess excellent mid-palate concentration that enrobes the buried but still quite firm but fine-grained tannins while culminating in a beautifully balanced, robust and explosively long finish. This is also very clearly built to age and will require most of a 12 to 15 year cellar siesta to arrive at its apogee but it should be well worth the wait.
**Note: from 55+ year old vines totaling .29 ha with .125 ha in Charmes and the other .165 ha in Mazoyères**
