A classic Gevrey nose displays an abundance of that sauvage character that adds breadth to the intensely earthy plum, spice and black currant scents. The exceptionally rich, powerful and imposingly concentrated middle weight plus flavors possess plenty of minerality that adds a sense of lift to the palate coating finish where the supporting tannins are notably firm. Even so, in much the same fashion as the Combe aux Moines this is a bit less youthfully austere than it usually is. Good stuff and worth considering.
This has some concentration and ripeness with blueberry and blackberry. Full to medium body, firm tannins and a long finish. Extremely attractive. Drink or hold.
Elegant and firmly structured, boasting cherry, currant and floral flavors, with spice and licorice hints. Finishes with a juicy blast of fruit and spice. Best from 2017 through 2025. 170 cases imported. –BS
When to drink: 2018 to 2023
Good depth and brooding black fruit on the nose. A certain elegance and limestone grip on the palate. Pretty serious, if not the most intense expression. Alex Hunt MW
