Note di degustazione
The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Fonteny includes two-thirds whole-cluster fruit, originating from a parcel just before Ruchottes-Chambertin that is worked by horse. I love the aromatics here, with more red fruit than the domaine’s fellow cuvées: Morello, cranberry jus, some mulberry coming in. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, very focused and energetic. It segues into darker fruit midway, but it maintains fine balance if remaining taut and linear instead of fanning out on the finish. There is a strictness in situ, so afford it 8 to 10 years in bottle, if you can. One "piddling" barrel produced.

Premier cru located between Mazis and Ruchottes. 80% whole bunch. 10% new oak. One fût – a 350-litre one in 2017, plus a feuillette. Spicy and lively with lots of freshness. Grainy texture and massive drive. Only medium body with lots of density and a dry finish but notable energy. (JR)
