Note di degustazione
(from two parcels, one 50 and the other 80 years of age): Alluring aromas of boysenberry and licorice pastille are complicated by a subtle animal perfume. At once densely packed and delineated, with thick purple fruit and mineral flavors enlivened by a penetrating violet quality and complicated by a leesy element. This wine's saline minerality contributes to its early personality. Finishes very long and suavely tannic, with a repeating note of licorice pastille.

The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Corbeaux comes from two parcels, 60 and 80 years old, matured entirely in new oak with around two-thirds whole cluster fruit. There was some reduction on the nose that was difficult to budge, though there appeared to be plenty of fruit down there. The palate is medium-bodied with firm, slightly chalky tannin, a fine silver bead of acidity, dark berry fruit mixed with graphite and undergrowth that defined the structured, quite tannic but not astringent finish. It will need several years, possibly a decade to reach maturity.
Vineyard next to Mazis. 75% whole bunch, 100% new oak. Just 2.5 fûts! Powerful savoury aromas – almost meaty. Then lovely spread of ripe flavours. Quite luscious and flattering. Powerful. But excellent balance and drive. (JR)
