Note di degustazione
Good dark red. At once vibrant and a bit medicinal, conveying a menthol freshness to its flavors of red cherry and mocha torrefaction. Then youthfully imploded in the middle palate without being hard. This distinctly backward wine finishes with slowly mounting spicy persistence and hints of licorice and saline minerality. If this wine is slightly high-toned, that's only in the context of the Roty style, which typically features fairly low levels of total sulfur in the bottled wines but also low volatile acidity.

Bright red-ruby. Very backward, medicinal scents of black fruits and bitter chocolate. Intense and penetrating, conveying a savory complexity and excellent energy to the flavors of blackberry, cassis, licorice, bitter chocolate and violet. The brisk finish throws off hints of mocha, coffee and licorice pastille. A strong village wine in the making.
(from vines planted in 1934 that directly abut Charmes-Chambertin). The underlying fruit is presently dominated by pungent notes of wood and reduction. By contrast there is an equally succulent mid-palate mouth feel to the palate coating and caressing medium-bodied flavors that display excellent depth and length on the somewhat rustic and very firm finale. Highly recommended if you have the patience to wait. Dec 2016, www.burghound.com
The 2015 Gevrey-Chambertin Champs-Chenys Vieilles Vignes, from old vines below Charmes-Chambertin, is a touch more reserved than the regular Gevrey villages, opening in the glass with lovely aromas of wild berry fruit, mint and toasty oak. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, lavishly textural and deep, with serious substance and sappy energy, more seriously structured than the regular Gevrey villages too.
