2019 Gevrey Chambertin Poissenots

The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Poissenot 1er Cru, from relatively young vines planted 12–15 years ago, has a lovely bouquet of ample red currant and cranberry scents on the nose, and a light brushing of loamy soil and woodland. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and fine acidity. There is something gentle about this Premier Cru, which is quite caressing in texture yet still displays good structure and delineation on the finish. Excellent.
