Note di degustazione
The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Jeunes Rois has turned out very nicely in bottle, mingling aromas of sweet berry fruit with hints of licorice, wilted rose petals, forest floor and orange rind. Medium-bodied and supple, it's bright and enveloping, with lovely acids and melting tannins. As I've observed before, this cuvée derives from a parcel planted in 1953 that tends to produce lots of small, "millrandé" berries.

The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Jeunes Roi, which is completely de-stemmed, is tightly wound on the nose, quite strict and almost Morey-like in style. The palate is medium-bodied and delivers very pure, almost crystalline tart red fruit with a touch of white pepper toward the composed, persistent finish. Excellent.
From Brochon. East facing, marl soils, waves of rock with blue marl in between. Planted 1952. Never gets water stress and seems very easy-going in any weather conditions, says Pierre Duroché. Tank sample but about to be bottled. Attractively light, dusty overlay on the fruit, open and inviting. Bright and fresh on the palate, so drinkable. Fresh, with fine-grained tannins, and already giving pleasure. (JH)

Domaine Duroché has, under Pierre Duroché, become one of the most sought-out and respected wine domaines in Gevrey-Chambertin. The wines are delicate and detailed, yet with old-vine intensity, a clear sense of place and style – and it’s easy to see why they’ve rapidly become so in-demand.
