Subtle to the point of translucence. Hard tannins. Doesn’t coax much beauty from the variety. (RH)

The 2009 Gevrey-Chambertin reveals considerable nuance in its open, perfumed bouquet and well-articulated fruit. The finish is ethereal, feminine and simply exquisite.
The 2009 Gevrey-Chambertin reveals considerable nuance in its open, perfumed bouquet and well-articulated fruit. The finish is ethereal, feminine and simply exquisite. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2022. Louis Boillot remarked that he and his wife Ghislaine Barthod were the first to harvest in 2009, but the last in 2008. In 2009 Boillot was concerned with losing the singular expression of site, hence his decision to pick on the early side. The 2009s were made from 100% destemmed fruit, as is the custom here. New oak reached a maximum of 25-30%. Boillot is among the growers who prefers the 2008s to the 2009s, which he describes as more faithful and transparent to site.

Scented and straightforward. Lip smacking. Pretty rustic tannins. A little light and chewy at the moment. (JR)
