Note di degustazione
Beetroot and cranberry – a very savoury style of fruit, as befits Gevrey. Rounded tannins with well-integrated acidic tang on the finish. (RH)

A blend of two vineyards in the north of Gevrey-Chambertin, 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin "Les Songes" Vieilles Vignes includes 60% whole bunch, which was the limit in this vintage for the domaine. To be honest, you can barely tell that there is a lot of whole bunch here: very pure and mineral-driven with vivid brambly red berry fruit and a touch of bay leaf. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin, satisfying depth of black fruit tinged with smoke and tobacco that leads to a linear and focused finish. Very fine.
An overtly floral and relatively high-toned nose offers up ultra-fresh aromas of both red and dark currant that are laced with plenty of earth influence. The medium-bodied flavors possess a slightly more polished mouthfeel, indeed it’s almost velvety, while exhibiting a touch of bitter cherry on the saline-inflected finish. This is also really quite good for its level. January 2018. www.burghound.com
