Note di degustazione
Another fine cuvée is the 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Prieur Bas, a wine derived from the part of this lieux-dit classified at the communal level, where Roty observes his grapes are always especially thick skinned. Offering up aromas of cherries, raspberries, cassis and rose petals, framed by toast oak, it's medium to full-bodied, concentrated and muscular, with the most depth and structure of Roty's three lieux-dits.

The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Prieur Bas is very well defined on the nose, suggesting a mixture of around two-thirds black and one-third red fruit, laced with orange peel and light pain d'épices aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannins, layered black cherry and boysenberry fruit and graphite and light fig notes. White pepper lingers toward the finish, which fans out nicely. Excellent.
The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Prieur Bas has one of the best aromatics among Roty’s 2018s, featuring gorgeous red cherry, wild strawberry and mineral aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and a fine bead of acidity. Quite crunchy in the mouth, with great tension and grip on the finish. This punches above its weight and will give a couple of decades of drinking pleasure.
