JOSEPH DROUHIN GEVREY CHAMBERTIN 2018
2019 has kept the promise of quality of Burgundian vintages ending in 9. The beautiful maturities have provided ample and silky wines. They are charming and full of delicacy.
Gevrey-Chambertin is a wine with a beautiful, bright ruby color. Intensely fruity on the nose, the aromas are reminiscent of black cherry, wild blackberry and licorice. The woody character is subtle and marries delicately with the other aromas. As the wine evolves, there are more complex notes, such as mild spice, nutmeg and leather. Later still, mushroom and damp earth nuances make their appearance. Although present on the palate, tannin is never astringent but blends itself harmoniously with the natural freshness and "gras" (velvety texture) of the wine. The same aromas encountered earlier on the nose are found again in the aftertaste.
CRITICAL ACCLAIM:
JS93 James Suckling
"A serious wine for this appellation with excellent red and black fruit that is beautifully underlined by the full, healthy tannins on the medium-to full-bodied palate. Very satisfying, long finish with quite some complexity. Drink or hold."
BH90 Burghound.com
"A less spicy and more sauvage-inflected nose reflects additional notes of red and black cherry, plum, rose petal and plenty of earth characters. The attractively textured, intense and solidly powerful medium weight flavors exude a subtle minerality on the ever-so-mildly rustic and austere finale. This too is a fine villages and in particular it has unusually good persistence."
