Note di degustazione
Bright, saturated ruby-red. Complex, soil-driven aromas of black raspberry, game and smoky crushed rock. Smooth, thick Gevrey villages with noteworthy elegance of texture and lovely vinosity to its dark fruit flavors. Spreads out to caress and dust the palate and tongue on the back end, finishing with pure dark fruit flavors complicated by spices and chocolate. I would expect this wine to be softened by its upcoming racking.

The 2016 Gevrey Chambertin Champs Perrieres Vieilles Vignes comes from 60-year-old vines. There is a richness right from the starting gun, the precocious nose revealing kirsch, crème de cassis and crushed violet scents, not unlike a Vosne-Romanée in many ways. Yet it retains admirable definition. The palate is medium-bodied with succulent ripe black fruit, very juicy in the mouth and more rounded than the Nuits Saint-Georges, although I would like a little more tension to come through on the finish.
