Note di degustazione
The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Corbeaux 1er Cru comes from two parcels just 60-metres from Mazis-Chambertin, matures entirely in new oak with two-thirds whole bunches. It has a very seductive bouquet with crème de cassis, blueberry and crushed violet aromas that are extremely pure, perhaps with a touch of more glycerine than other cuvées from Dugat-Py. The palate is rich and opulent on the entry but the acidity keeps everything in check. There is a lot of weight here, grippy and sweet, almost heady towards the finish, yet the freshness remains intact. Give it a decade if you can, in bottle.

A more deeply pitched nose features notes of leather, forest floor, damp leaves and an amalgam of cassis and dark cherry scents. There is an evident earthiness to the rich, mouth coating and velvet-textured flavors that retain excellent focus and power on the sneaky long finish. This is a classically styled Corbeaux with plenty of sauvage character.
The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Les Corbeaux offers up lovely aromas of briary, plummy fruit that mingle with notes of dark chocolate and grilled game. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, velvety and layered, with a rounded, charming profile that belies its depth and concentration. This should have the broadest drinking window of any premier cru in the Dugat-Py cellar this year.
Vineyard next to Mazis. Two parcels, one 80 years and the other 60 years. Two-thirds new oak and two-thirds whole bunch. Strong toasty vanilla and spice sweetness here with lovely concentration of red fruit emerging on the nose. Extremely supple texture and juicy but perhaps not as persistent as some. There’s a note of stemmy freshness to balance the fruit ripeness. Deep and chewy on the finish. More impact than length. (JH)
